When projection welding, the component parts must be specifically manufactured with dimples or projections, in order to ensure that they fit together and maximize contact between the parts.
For this purpose, T-slots on platens in projection welding machines are used to fix the components to be welded suitably in the projection welding machine.
BS EN 20865 is an International Standard that specifies requirements for dimensions, pitch, and location of T-slots on platens for projection welding machines.
BS EN 20865 on T-slots on platens for projection welding machines is useful for:
T-slots on platens are the worktable and important fixture of a projection welding machine, especially one that is slotted to enable T-bolts to be used.
BS EN 20865 provides you requirements on dimensions on T-slots pitch, number and location of the T-slots, and designation requirements of T-slots on platens for projection welding machines.
The guidance BS EN 20865 for precision dimension requirements for T-slots in platens can help you to properly fix the components for the welding operation and improve the performance of projection welding machine.
Thus, compliance with BS EN 20865 guidelines can help you improve the efficiency of projection welding machines and the quality of welded components produced.
