AMADA – Advanced Data Analysis Monitor – WM-100A
With an ever-increasing emphasis on accountability, AMADA WELD TECH’s WM-100A is the most advanced resistance welding monitoring system available from any manufacturer. Built in the USA, the WM-100A offers more of the information you need for resistance welding process development, production monitoring and data to support your ISO, and GMP and TQM requirements. Not only will it monitor what happens during the weld, but also before it is triggered, giving you a true 360-degree view of your welding process.

Interface
Run screen
Comprehensive production screen provides graphical and numeric viewing of the present weld as well as trend data. Two run charts with limits, histogram, event logger and alarm indications. Programmable weld counter with easy to view process monitor shows ratio of In/Out of limits welds.
Expanded monitor screen
Expandable graphic data windows allow user to overlap multiple graphs to analyze the dynamic relationships between the variables. Waveform cursors with advanced measurement tools allow precise interrogation of the welding sequence.
Limits setup screen
Programmable limits screen for setting upper and lower numeric limits on peak and RMS data. Envelope limits can be placed around waveforms to detect slight changes in process stability. Part thickness and displacement limits measure the mechanical aspects of the welding process.
Screen formats
Very flexible formatting capabilities allows user to customize data, colors, and styles on graph displays for easy viewing and emphasis of key parameters.
Logger screen
Monitored results with time and date stamps are updated in real time. Data is stored on large internal hard disk and can be connected to Statistical process control software for process analysis and quality improvement.
Event and error table screen
Errors and Events are captured with time and date stamps for record keeping and process analysis. User can also log events such as a change of electrodes so these actions are readily available when analyzing data.
Main menu screen
Simple menu access to setup and view screens with multiple levels of security to protect against unauthorized program changes.
Envelope setup screen
An easy to use graphic interface provides quick setup of envelope limits and allows user to target a specific section of the waveform to evaluate process results.
