Welding (fusion) parameters calculator Erbach® created to help professional welders of polyethylene pipes. Use of Erbach® calculator allows the welder to leave in the past the use of paper "welding charts." Now all the welding (fusion) parameters can be calculated in the professional program directly on your smartphone or tablet. In contrast to printed "welding charts" Erbach® calculator makes calculation straight with consideration of the drag pressure. Before welding, just enter in the Erbach® Fusion Parameters Calculator the diameter, SDR of pipes and the drag pressure. The program will immediately calculate the required fusion parameters: • size of the primary bead • heating up time • changeover time • build-up time • pressure and time of fusion • cooling time of the welded joint The program allows to calculate the parameters of welding (fusion) of polyethylene pipes for the main specifications: • DVS 2207-1 Special timer is integrated in the program to control the heating and cooling time during the welding (fusion) process. For welders who do not know their cross-sectional area welder Added "Define sectional area of the cylinders" option. With its help welder can define cross-sectional area of welding machine. We wish you success in your work! Erbach Kunststoff- und Schweißtechnik GmbH - German company. We manufacture equipment ERBACH for welding of polyethylene pipes.

About

ElectroFusion Studio

Features
Read full description

The ElectroFusion Studio app captures quality relevant data during the preparation of PE / PP pipes for the electro fusion welding process. The BARCODE function decodes and shows the contents of barcodes conform to ISO12176-3 (fusion operator badge), ISO12176-4 (traceability code), ASTM F2897 (component code) and ISO13950 (fitting welding barcode). The WELDING function captures data during the preparation of the welding process following a pre-determined profile, e.g. job code, joint code, photos of quality relevant steps, GPS-data, system barcodes etc. Welding parameters will be transmitted via bluetooth connection (BLE) to compatible electro fusion controllers (processors) and the welding process will be started. The welding process data can be monitored within the range of the bluetooth connection. After the welding process is finished the device log in transmitted to the Smartphone and added to the captured data. After uploading to the server database the data can be reviewed on the EFCC-WepApp (ElectroFusion Control Center) by a limited group of people.
