The Valentek AVC is an Automatic Voltage Control system featuring a high-precision motorized ball screw slide, engineered to automatically maintain a constant distance between the torch and the workpiece during welding. This advanced tracking ensures uniform weld beads and repeatable quality, even when processing workpieces with severe tolerances or thermal deformations.
PLC-driven electronic control combined with real-time arc voltage tracking adjustments delivers total automated process control on the shop floor. Built for industrial versatility, Valentek AVC interfaces seamlessly with any TIG, PLASMA, or MIG welding generator. It is fully Industry 4.0-ready via native LAN Ethernet connectivity and is optimized to operate in perfect synchronization with the WF4R 4-roll wire feeder, mechanical oscillators, and heavy-duty industrial remote controls.
AVC is perfect for TIG/MIG/Plasma welding across a wide range of demanding industrial applications, including the automatic welding of tanks and shells, longitudinal and circumferential pipe welding, and the fabrication of scambiatrici scambiatori (heat exchangers), autoclaves, and certified pressure vessels. It delivers flawless execution in both light and heavy structural steelwork, industrial HVAC systems, and high-sanitary components for the food and pharmaceutical sectors. Optimized for automotive manufacturing and structural frames in carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and special alloys, the AVC is engineered for seamless integration into automated production lines and robotic welding cells where maintaining a constant torch-to-workpiece distance is mandatory to guarantee maximum weld bead quality and absolute process repeatability.
