Primus

The high-frequency welding system for micro-welding


The Primus is the universal welding system for resistance welding and soldering in the field of micro welding. It offers a maximum of functionality. Event-oriented process control and comprehensive monitoring functions give you security in your joining process. The scope of delivery includes a welding controller with integrated inverter, a transformer and a connection cable as well as operating software for Windows PC (for resistance welding and soldering).
