William Hughes is using plasma
welding processes to manufacture a
variety of wire products for
industries ranging from consumer
electrical goods to automotive.
The semi-automatic plasma
welding process is used by the
company to join round phosphor
bronze or stainless steel wire, making
2D or 3D forms. Hexagonal wire can
also be processed if required.

Almost any diameter (including
very small sizes) can be
accommodated – only a change of
clamping plates is needed. In terms
of wire diameter, this is typically 0.75
or 0.9mm.

A rigorous failure test mechanism
is in place to ensure that high quality
plasma-welded parts are always
supplied.
