Gloveboxes for Inert Gas Processing and Seam Welding
Seam welding is also known as resistance welding or roller welding. In this kind of welding, an electrical current is passed through a lid and container. As the metal heats up, the lid is completely joined to the body of the container.
Seam welding is best performed in a glovebox that provides an inert atmosphere, usually nitrogen or argon, and that control oxygen and moisture levels. While welding can be done outside of a glovebox, particularly under a shield gas of argon, the resulting weld can be tarnished and rusted. Welding in a glovebox offers several distinct advantages:
An inert environment for handling highly reactive materials
Hermetically sealed chambers reduce moisture and oxygen entry
Vacuum loadlock transfer chambers reduce contamination
No formation of oxide
Less welding smoke
Clean and even welding seam
Reduces or eliminates additives
Moisture-free welding atmosphere
The System One glovebox from Innovative Technology provides the atmosphere you need for seam welding. Not only can you create an inert gas environment, but you can also reduce the content of oxygen and moisture to less than one part per million. This gives you a non-reactive environment in which to create ultra-pure welds.
Accessories are also available for your System One glovebox:
Oxygen and moisture sensors
Furnaces and ovens
Purifier and regeneration systems
