The Pro Spot PTST-KIT is a specialized upgrade package designed to convert a standard manual Twin Spot Torch (TST) into a fully Pneumatic Twin Spot Torch (PTST). In the realm of collision repair and resistance spot welding, consistency is paramount. Manual torches rely on the operator's grip force to apply pressure to the weld zone, which can lead to variations in weld quality, especially over long shifts. By upgrading to a pneumatic system, shops can ensure that every spot weld receives the exact same amount of electrode pressure, regardless of the operator.
This conversion kit is engineered specifically for Pro Spot equipment, commonly used with the i4 and i5 inverter spot welders. The pneumatic actuation allows for rapid, repetitive welding with minimal physical exertion. This is particularly advantageous for single-sided welding applications where maintaining constant contact pressure is difficult manually. The kit includes the pneumatic cylinder, air routing lines, and the necessary mechanical linkages to replace the manual lever system.
Installation is straightforward for technicians familiar with Pro Spot equipment. Once installed, the PTST system utilizes the shop's air supply to drive the electrodes, ensuring that the critical squeeze force required for proper nugget formation is met every time. This upgrade not only improves the structural integrity of repairs but also extends the lifespan of consumables by preventing arcing caused by insufficient pressure.
