General information  
1.2 Intended use  
With the SOYER® Stud Welding Pistols PS-1, PS-3K, PS-0K and PS-1K  
operating with tip ignition, a variety of pins and threaded bolts of steel and  
stainless steel can be welded (dimensions see Chapter 2.6: Technical data).  
It is also possible to weld fastening elements of brass. The Stud Welding Pistol  
PS-1 is also suitable for welding aluminium.  
The visible side of the workpieces remain to a large extent unaffected by tool  
drag marks or deformation, so that if thin metal sheets of below 1mm sheet  
thickness are welded, a decorative appearance will be maintained.  
Please contact either our parent company or one of our field engineers if you  
require consultation or a solution to your problem.

2.1 Technology of tip ignition  
The SOYER® Stud Welding Systems function according to the principle of  
capacitor discharge with tip ignition in compliance with DVS leaflet 0903  
(German Welding Society).  
This system utilises the abrupt discharge of a capacitor battery to generate  
electric arc energy.  
Adjusting screw Stud holder  
Stud  
Workpiece  
SZ.0001.E  
The electric arc is initiated via the calibrated and close fit ignition tip on the  
welding studs and the welding elements. The stud weld base and the opposite  
surface of the workpieces is then melted slightly. The stud is automatically  
immersed into the thin melted zone and/or the liquid weld bath. After the  
immediate solidification of the material, an homogenous high-strength joint in  
an extremely short welding time ranging only between 1-3 milliseconds (0.001-  
0.003 sec.) is achieved.

Description of the Stud Welder Pistols  
2.2 Stud Welding Pistol PS-1  
The SOYER® Stud Welding Pistol PS-1 is designed for a wide variety of  
applications. The field-proven patented Positioning Pistol has a handy design,  
is lightweight and is injection moulded of shock-proof, fully insulated plastic.  
With this pistol the welding stud can be positioned exactly on a specific part of  
the workpiece without requiring any auxiliary aids. Templates are not required.  
Before welding the stud position has to be marked or centred slightly. The  
calibrated ignition tip is then positioned on the marked point. When the pistol is  
operated, the stud is mechanically lifted. A necessary air gap is created  
between the tip and the workpiece. The stud is then mechanically moved to  
the marked point and is welded with electric arc ignition as soon as the marked  
point is reached.  
The pistol guide is protected by rubber bellows especially against weld spatters  
and dirt.  
A special spring pressure display with scale shows the spring pressure for the  
respective welding task and enables the reproducibility of welding joints, if  
necessary.

Setting the Stud Welding Pistol  
4.3 Setting the spring pressure  
The pressure with which the stud is pressed onto the workpiece during the  
welding process is referred to as spring pressure.  
The following diagram displays the spring pressure setting for the Stud Welding  
Pistol PS-1 with spring pressure display. The Stud Welding Pistol PS-3K is  
equipped with a similar spring pressure display. The Stud Welding Pistols PS-  
0K and PS-1K do not display the spring pressure.

The spring pressure can be set on all Stud Welding Pistols described using the  
same setting screw (1). The spring pressure setting is displayed on the spring  
pressure scale (2). The spring pressure is set as follows:  
Turn setting screw (1) to the left until it stops  
Display position 1

The spring pressure setting depends on the quality of the welding stud and of  
the workpiece.  
Carry out welding samples and tests before starting work to determine an  
optimum setting.  
Samples should be taken several times during production to ensure that  
equally good welding results are achieved throughout the whole production  
process (see DVS Directive 0905, part 2 How to ensure the quality of stud  
welding joints).

Quality Control  
6 Quality Control  
6.1 General information  
The DVS directive 0905, part 2 of April 1979 is valid with regard to ensuring the  
quality of stud welded joints. The tests described in this section have been  
written in a simplified form on the basis of this directive. They refer to work  
tests which are carried out and controlled by the User prior to and during  
welding works.  
Heinz Soyer Bolzenschweißtechnik GmbH is a member of the Deutscher  
Verband für Schweißtechnik e.V. (DVS) (German Welding Society), Munich.  
6.2 Demands on the company  
The company must appoint a responsible welding supervisor and employ  
appropriately qualified operating personnel for stud welding (see DVS Directive  
0905, part 2, section 4).  
6.3 Proof of qualification  
In the case of components which are subject to documentation requirements  
and/or stud welding works which are subject to acceptance in compliance with  
DIN 4100, DIN 4113, the manufacturing company must submit proof of  
competence or a qualification certificate (see DVS Directive 0905, part 2,  
sections 4.1 and 4.2). The competence qualification is applicable in particular  
for fastening constructions concerning safety regulations. If the Stud Welder is  
used in the construction industry, only permissible base and stud materials  
(see e.g. DIN 4100, clause 2.1, registration license for stainless steel ifBT; DIN  
4113, part 2) may be applied.  
6.4 Type and scope of testing  
If the SOYER stud welding system is handled in compliance with regulations  
and the proper materials are selected, the welded joint strength (welding zone)  
will always be higher than that of the stud or base material. In practical  
operation, the following work tests are carried out:  
Normal work test (see DVS Directive 0905, part 2, section 5.1.2)  
Simplified work test (see DVS Directive 0905, part 2, section 5.1.2)  
6-24

R
Quality Control  
6.4.1 Normal work test  
Normal work tests are generally to be implemented and controlled by the  
Operator prior to carrying out welding works at a construction and after a  
certain number of welds. The number of welds after which a normal work test  
is necessary is agreed with the customer.  
The normal work test is restricted to the stud diameters, base material and  
stud welder type used. It includes the following tests:  
Visual check (all samples)  
Tension test (at least 3 samples)  
Bending test (at least 3 samples)  
In case of doubt, the scope of testing should be extended in compliance with  
the DVS Directive 0905, part 2, section 5.1.1).  
6.4.2 Simplified work test  
Simplified work tests serve to control the correct stud welder setting and  
functioning of the equipment. They are carried out before starting any shift or  
after any interruption lasting for several hours.  
The simplified work test includes:  
Visual check (all samples)  
Bending test (all samples)  
6.5 Implementation of sample taking  
6.5.1 Production of samples  
The studs for the work test are welded to a sheet metal the minimum size of  
which is 700 mm x 200 mm. The same welding positions and distances to the  
borders shall be adhered to as on the construction part. Identical parts to  
those to be used in later production should be used for the tests provided this  
is possible and economically justifiable.  
6.5.2 Visual check  
The visual check serves as a rough control to detect any possible major faults.  
The uniformity of the welding is assessed. Tension or bending tests must be  
carried out in case of doubt.

R
Quality Control  
6.5.3 Tension test  
The tension test serves to test the metallic bond between the stud and the  
base material. At least 3 studs are welded and then axially loaded by means of  
an appropriate tensile testing machine unitl they break. If the Customer  
demands that a certain percentage of the welded studs should be tested with  
a predefined test load in production, a tensile testing machine with load unit  
display must be used.  
If the stud breaks beyond the welding zone, the sample test is regarded as  
successful. If the stud breaks within the welding zone, the fracture must be  
examined. The unwelded surface must not exceed a maximum of 20% of the  
welding surface. In cases of doubt, the breaking load is to be examined in  
accordance with DIN 267, part 3.  
If the number of faulty studs in any one random test exceeds the acceptance  
number in compliance with DIN 267, part 5, according to AQL 4, it is  
necessary to determine the reason for the faults. In such a case it is necessary  
to modify the setting values and then repeat the test.  
6.5.4 Bending test  
The bending test is a simple work test and is designed to roughly control the  
setting values selected. An undefined tension, pressure and bending is exerted  
on the welding zone. At least 3 studs are welded and bent by 30° using an  
attached laterally ground tube. The test is regarded as successful if no tear or  
fracture is detected in the welding zone. The acceptance figure in compliance  
with DIN 267, part 5, according to AQL 4 must be observed. If in one test  
batch the number of faulty parts exceeds the acceptance figure AQL 4 (see  
DIN 267), the reason for the faults must be determined and the complete test  
repeated.

Maintenance  
7. Maintenance  
7.1 Stud Welding Pistols  
The Stud Welding Pistols have been constructed in such a way to require only  
a minimum of maintenance. The parts of the Stud Welding Pistol which may  
get damaged by weld spatters, such as stud holder and pistol feet and/or  
centering support tube should, however, be kept clean. The stud holder and  
pistol feet are wear-and-tear parts and should be replaced if they display any  
signs of wear and tear.  
ƽ
MORTAL DANGER  
Before replacing any components, disconnect power supply. Electric and  
electronic components may only be replaced by a specialist, if necessary,  
consult SOYER® Customer Service.  
7.2 Replacing components  
Components may only be replaced by specially trained SOYER® service  
technicians. Perfect Stud Welder functions can only be guaranteed if original  
SOYER® spare parts are used.  
MORTAL DANGER  
Before replacing components, ensure that the capacitors have been  
discharged.
