WTC Weld Controls and Inverters for Resistance Welding
As a proud distributor of Welding Technology Corp (WTC), we’re excited to represent a company that has set the benchmark in resistance welding innovation. Based in Farmington Hills, Michigan, WTC is a trusted name with over 60,000 units installed globally.
WTC specializes in high-performance welding control systems—most notably the WT6000 series. These systems are designed to enhance precision, efficiency, and quality in resistance welding operations. Whether your application involves steel, aluminum, or other conductive materials, WTC’s solutions deliver unmatched flexibility and reliability.
One of the standout features of WTC’s products is their adaptability. The WT6000 controls support a wide range of configurations, including both AC and MFDC technologies. With up to 255 programmable weld schedules and multilingual support, these systems are ready to meet global manufacturing standards. Programming and monitoring are streamlined through user-friendly interfaces, including laptop, touchscreen panels, and web-based platforms.
The company also places strong emphasis on modularity. From discrete I/O modules to analog pressure control, WTC offers an array of external interfaces, allowing customers to tailor their setup to specific production needs. This makes WTC a preferred partner for pilot plants, robotic welding lines, and custom applications alike.
WTC’s RAFT adaptive process: What is it?
Weld Tech Corporation’s RAFT™ technology is a cutting-edge resistance welding control system engineered to deliver exceptional weld quality, process consistency, and real-time diagnostic insights. At the heart of RAFT are two powerful tools: AdaptQ and SoftQ.
AdaptQ utilizes intelligent adaptive algorithms to automatically adjust weld current and time during each weld, responding instantly to disturbances such as fit-up variations, coatings, or material inconsistencies. By operating in the lower portion of the weld lobe, AdaptQ minimizes expulsion and flash while enhancing nugget integrity. This adaptive “cruise control” mode ensures stable, repeatable welds across a variety of production conditions with minimal operator intervention.
Complementing AdaptQ, SoftQ delivers advanced quality monitoring and post-weld analysis. It offers precise tip dress verification, expulsion detection, and real-time monitoring of nugget, tooling, and process integrity. SoftQ’s intuitive tools let you set alert thresholds, detect anomalies, and generate actionable insights from every weld—regardless of whether you’re running in constant current or adaptive mode.
RAFT connects through the RAFT Gateway, enabling comprehensive network-wide data reporting and control. By combining intelligent automation with powerful analytics, RAFT streamlines welding operations, reduces costly downtime, and ensures every weld meets the highest standards of quality and reliability.
With RAFT, you gain precision control, improved uptime, and the confidence that your welding process is always under control.
WTC isn’t just about machines—it’s about empowering manufacturers with intelligent, future-ready welding technology. Their dedicated support, knowledge portal, and global reach make them a reliable partner in any production environment.
As your distributor, we’re here to help you integrate WTC solutions that improve your welding processes and boost your productivity. Let’s build the future together—with WTC. Contact G.E. Schmidt today for more.
