Weld 2009 is the latest innovation of Fontijne Grotnes for the resistance welding market. This control system is a new approach for resistance welding based upon control of temperature, pressure and position. Weld 2009 is based on the knowledge off all resistance welding processes.

Present welding technologies are operator dependent, without exact control of the operation. Fluctuating material and machine properties can cause an inconsistent quality. Weld 2009 deals with these problems.

The Weld 2000 package can perfectly replace existing weld controls. This system is adaptable to the many levels of technology and control schemes that are already installed around the world. This means that existing machines do not necessarily have to undergo major modifications to their basic welding method before integrating Weld 2000. In many cases it is possible to integrate the system into the DC Butt welder with very few changes to the welder itself, regardless of such things as the type of platen control or clamp force control, this weld control system has an apparent Weld Wizzard. Weld 2000 is a suitable replacement for:
