FlexFast™ CLCS (CenterLine Control Solution)

The CenterLine FlexFast™ CLCS configured stationary welder is a compact, versatile, welding machine designed for production fastener welding applications. This design includes many standard features that ensure the FlexFast™ CLCS produces consistent weld quality, is easily operated, and has minimal maintenance requirements.

The FlexFast™ CLCS offers:

• Exceptional part quality at a competitive cost
• Solid construction, capable of welding fasteners up to 13.3kN (3000 lbs) weld force
• Ability to weld up to M10 sized fasteners - application/fastener dependent
• One (1) or two (2) OHMA™ air/oil weld actuator(s) with configurable fixed spacing
• Low impact, “soft-touch” operation to minimize electrode wear, deflection, and part deformation. This promotes higher-quality welding and lower maintenance needs.
• Four schedules available per cylinder
• Accurate control over weld forces over a wide range of air pressure settings
• Interchangeable lower tooling enables rapid changeover for multi-application needs

CLCS HMI Features

• Reduced cost compared to a PLC and standard HMI while maintaining high quality and safety
• Wi-Fi “over-the-air” updates for firmware, if required
• No PLC programming required, equipped with controller and HMI pre-programmed functionality
• No software license fees are required
• Upper and lower electrode weld counters for maintenance notifications
• Weld control, with discrete interface
• Dynamic high-resolution touch screen
• Discrete control of up to 2 feeders
• Active in-process weld monitoring
