ValuePress Press-Type Resistance Welders

Configurable Resistance Welder for Spot, Projection, and Combined Spot / Projection Welding Applications

ValuePress Press-Type Spot and Projection Welders

Weld Systems Integrators ValuePress press-type resistance welders are compact, configurable machines designed for spot welding, projection welding, nut welding, stud welding, and combined spot/projection applications. Available with AC and MFDC power configurations, ValuePress welders provide the flexibility of a larger press welder in a compact, cost-effective platform.

WSI ValuePress welders can operate as stand-alone machines or be configured with custom tooling, nut feeders, fastener detection, process monitoring, robotic cells, and automated manufacturing systems. Their rigid frame, configurable platens and weld arms, and open construction make the ValuePress an excellent choice for manufacturers requiring reliable resistance welding with limited floor space.

WSI offers three press-type resistance welder platforms: HD, ECONOPRESS, and ValuePress. The WSI HD is designed for the highest-capacity applications, with configurations up to 500 kVA, 100,000 amps of weld current, 48-inch throat depth, and 5,500 lbs. of weld force. ECONOPRESS and ValuePress models provide economical alternatives for applications requiring lower power, force, or throat depth.

What is a WSI ValuePress Resistance Welder?

The WSI ValuePress is a configurable press-type resistance welder designed for spot welding, projection welding, nut welding, stud welding, and automated resistance welding applications. Available with AC or MFDC power supplies, ValuePress welders provide manufacturers with a compact, cost-effective alternative to larger press welders without sacrificing flexibility, weld quality, or reliability.

Why Choose a WSI ValuePress?

Compact footprint — Provides press-welder capabilities without requiring the footprint of a larger heavy-duty press welder.

Compact footprint — Designed for applications where manufacturing floor space is limited.
Configurable platform — Configure the machine for spot, projection, nut, or stud welding.
AC or MFDC power — Select the power configuration appropriate for the welding application.
Automation-ready — Integrate the ValuePress into robotic cells and automated manufacturing systems.
Fastener welding capability — Open construction accommodates nut feeders and fastener detection equipment.
Custom tooling — Configure platens, arms, tooling, controls, and monitoring around the application.
Made in the USA — WSI designs, engineers, and manufactures its welders in Warrensville Heights, Ohio.

Why Choose a WSI ValuePress over an EconoPress Welder?

Choose ValuePress when the application fits within roughly 100 kVA, 25,000 amps, 1,570 lbs. of force, and an 8-inch throat, and you want a compact, configurable, and economical production welder.

Choose EconoPress when the application requires higher weld current, greater electrode force, deeper throat dimensions, CD power, more extensive customization, or larger/more demanding tooling and parts. The EconoPress can reach 200 kVA, 75,000 amps, and substantially greater force and throat depth.

Why Choose a WSI ValuePress over a WSI HD Press Welder?

The ValuePress makes sense when you don’t need to pay for capacity you won’t use. Its compact construction is particularly attractive for dedicated production applications, limited floor space, and robotic cells. The open construction accommodates nut feeders, while platen-mounted tooling, weld arms, custom tooling, fastener detection, and process monitoring can be incorporated as required.

The HD Press becomes the better choice as the application gets larger or more demanding. Its substantially greater electrode force, available welding power, throat depths from 12–48 inches, and broader range of configurations make it appropriate for high-force projection welding, larger components, deep-reach applications, and applications requiring greater future flexibility.

Can WSI Customize a ValuePress for my Application?

Yes. WSI can configure the welding power supply, weld control, tooling, arms, monitoring, fastener detection, feeding equipment, and automation around the welding application.
