COST ADVANTAGES OF CuCrZr MATERIAL
CuCrZr material is best suited material of spot welding caps for both coated & non-coated sheets. The additional cost advantages of our (CuCrZr) Cap, Tip and Shank and Adaptor:-
1. RWMA – class 1 copper chromium zirconium (CuCrZr), Conductivity 85% and Hardness 83B.
2. Does not stick on Zr coated materials because the lower welding current and pressure used melt less of the Zr and thus reduce the diffusion of the Zr into the Cu.
3. Reducing the current by 15 - 20%, which is a big saving of energy & power consumption.
4. Reducing weld force by which weld splatters are minimized
5. Reducing dressing time to more than half that also if necessary, as the cap tip surface does not allow formation of any contamination like brass coating / carbon.
6. Reduce cap changing downtime.
7. Better weld quality.
8. Increasing Kickless & Aid Cable life.
These above factors ultimately results into more productivity.

Current Conducting Copper/Steel Electrode Arms
Current conducting electrode arms are a melt shop proven design that provide efficient cooling as well as reduced electrical loss. The utilization of the copper clad (copper & steel) arms combines the high strength of steel with the high conductivity and current carrying ability of copper.
Typical Copper Grades and Copper Alloys
C11000, Electrolytic Tough Pitch Copper (ETP)
C10100 and C10200, Oxygen Free Coppers (OFHC)
Advantages of Copper/Steel Electrode Arms
For Ø 100-800 mm sized electrodes
Low operating costs
Minimal shutdown times
Easy handling
Optimum symmetry
Highest efficiency level
Current Conducting Aluminum Electrode Arms
Lighter aluminum current conducting electrode arms are available if less stress for the mechanical system is required.
The weight advantage of aluminum electrode arms are optimal for modernization of existing furnaces, with less need for changing peripheral structural components.

CHROMIUM ZIRCONIUM COPPER SPOT WELDER CAPS
1. This is the basic cap material having a composition of 1% Chromium, 0.1% Zirconium; balance Copper – nominal.
2. The nominal hardness of a cold forged Chromium Zirconium Copper cap is 85HRB, which results in long working life of the cap.
3. The Zirconium in the cap prevents brassing up during welding of galvanized steels.
4. Since it is Mipalloy’s most popular cap material, standard designs are always available ex stock off the shelf.
5. It is the lowest cost spot welding cap material.
6. Chromium Zirconium Copper has a large application window and can be used for welding majority of jobs including plain Cold rolled and cold annealed steels, galvanized steels, Nickel steels and Terne coated steel sheets.
7. Chromium Zirconium Copper is designated Mipalloy 3ZR.
8. Other international nomenclature include.
