Machine overview

MAGNA S – suspended
HF/RF welding head

MAGNA S is a suspended high-frequency welding head for handling large, heavy technical materials. The head is mounted on a supporting beam in the production hall, allowing the work area to be arranged without a conventional gantry structure.

This solution allows operation with a custom-made table or a table integrated directly into the floor. It is particularly useful for very large products that would be difficult or ergonomically challenging to move across a standard table.

  • suspended HF/RF welding head
  • adjustable output power from 10–25 kW
  • mounted on a supporting beam in the production hall
  • compatible with a custom-made table
  • compatible with a floor-level table
  • 180° head rotation
  • pneumatically lowered electrode and pressure plate
  • integrated high-frequency generator
  • built-in HMI touchscreen

MAGNA L – linear gantry
HF/RF welder

MAGNA L is a large-format linear high-frequency welder with a gantry design. The machine is designed to produce large welds in single or repeated cycles.

The welding head moves along the X axis, while the pneumatic pressure plate applies even pressure to the material. MAGNA L is suitable for linear welds and for use with shaped electrodes, such as curved or angled electrodes.

  • linear gantry design for large formats
  • HF generator with 25 kW output power
  • head movement along the X axis
  • 180° head rotation
  • servo-controlled movement with ±0.5 mm precision
  • HIWIN linear guides
  • access to the work area from multiple sides
  • 1350 × 3200 mm worktable or custom-made alternative
  • 1350 × 1300 mm pneumatic pressure plate or custom-made alternative
  • pressing force up to 4000 kg
  • 400 mm electrode stroke
  • head can be parked outside the worktable area

MAGNA 3D – gantry HF welder with 360° head rotation

MAGNA 3D is the most advanced version in the series, designed for complex large-format products and processes requiring head movement along multiple axes. The head can move along the X and Y axes, while its 360° rotation allows the electrode to be positioned at the required angle to the product.

The gantry structure is designed to meet process requirements and production hall conditions. MAGNA 3D is ideal where precise positioning, a wide range of movement and welding in different directions are required.

  • large-format gantry HF/RF welder
  • output power from 15–25 kW
  • head movement along the X and Y axes
  • 360° head rotation with a predefined starting position
  • servo-controlled movement
  • ±0.5 mm positioning precision
  • ±0.5° rotational precision
  • HIWIN linear guides
  • APEX planetary gearboxes
  • four independently mounted columns supporting the structure
  • structure and worktable dimensions tailored to the customer’s process

Safety and process control

Zemat high frequency welding machines use systems designed to support operator safety, protect key machine components and maintain process stability. These solutions help protect the electrode, material, generator and work area, while process monitoring systems enable fast detection of irregularities and help maintain repeatable welding parameters.

  • AntiFlash™ – a fully solid-state, maintenance-free system that protects the electrode and material against electrical arcing.
  • WCS™ – a system for monitoring welding cycle parameters.
  • ATS™ – a system for automatic adjustment of HF/RF output power.
  • EMC mains filters designed to protect the customer’s electrical network against electromagnetic interference.
  • Enclosed and shielded welding chamber designed to effectively protect the operator from exposure to electromagnetic fields.
  • The machine complies with current machinery safety requirements and applicable standards. Compliance is confirmed by complete Technical Documentation, an EC/EU Declaration of Conformity supplied with each machine, and CE marking.
  • Optional safety light curtains for an increased level of operator protection.

Measurement Laboratory

For machines manufactured by Zemat, mandatory electromagnetic field (EMF) emission measurements are carried out in the working environment. The tests are performed by the Mobilab laboratory operating within Zemat Technology Group. The measurement laboratory works in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 and holds PCA accreditation, confirming the quality of its services and the reliability of measurement results.
