GeniusHWI MFDC Weld Control

Programmed with Harms & Wende’s high-powered xPegasus Windows-based platform, with high customization to meet almost any challenge. The GeniusHWI family ranges from 250A to massive 3500A outputs. The GeniusHWI controller is available in “Basic” and “Professional” trims to make sure you have the tools you need for complete weld point monitoring.

Harms & Wende’s IQflex monitors steel welds in real time for complete IQR. Instead of fiddling with weld parameters, fit the weld to a curve and the weld control will adapt the rest — No calibration necessary.

SiniusHWI Weld Processor

The SiniusHWI weld processor for the highest level of customization for high-spec applications. The customer brings the PLC and the code to tailor the weld to their specific application, for both AC and MFDC systems. The “processor” name points to the fact that it is taking commands from a customer-supplied PLC for extreme customizations (with code and control written by the customer). The Sinius is also available in 250A to 3500A outputs.

Make with it what you will! The features are what you, the user, can imagine for it.

  • 8 internal schedules (unlimited in PLC)
  • 10 time segments per schedule or 80 in one schedule
  • Secondary current regulation
  • Proportional valve output 0-10 V
  • Full integration in PLC environment
  • Protect your knowledge
  • Suitable for almost any PLC
  • Customized weld schedules as needed
