Sunstone DC-5 Welder

The DC 5 is a precision DC waveform welding power supply, capable of precise power delivery. It has a maximum output of 5 volts, and can be adjusted to deliver as low as 0.1 volts. It has a digital readout that shows the weld length and volts delivered. The DC 5 is able to deliver up to 60 welds per minute. This unit is excellent for fine wires and metal sheets, such as ribbons. The DC 5 is the perfect choice for control and precision.
 
Sunstone’s micro welding solutions are perfect for microjoining and thermocompression bonding. When bonding small wires or ribbon from one connection pad to another, Sunstone’s new DC 5 - welder in combination with a low-force micro weld head is recommended as an optimal welding setup.
