Chapter 1: Overview
The Sunstone Pico is a closed-loop feedback, direct-current, resistance welder engineered for thermocom-
pression and other ne welds. With built-in force and displacement monitoring, the Pico provides unmatched
precision, energy control, and monitoring using a color touchscreen interface.
The Pico provides you with many advantageous benets, including built-in weld monitoring, SPC tools, PLC
communication, closed-loop feedback, and more—all controlled with a 100% digital interface. The touchscreen
provides easy access to all weld parameters in addition to a visual representation of the weld waveform graph,
weld histograms, alarms, and warnings.
For automated production settings, the welder has basic PLC protocols. A cloning feature provides a simplied
method to set up multiple identical welders. Cloning copies all parameters and settings from one welder and
quickly exports them to other welders.
DC resistance welders, like the Pico, can provide consistent and repeatable energy discharges with accurate
controls and ne adjustments. DC resistance welders are ideal for thermocompression applications and small
wires due to the lower peak currents and maintainable energy discharge.
The Pico provides the following features and benets:
• Small heat-aected zone during the weld
• Ability to monitor Force and Displacement during the weld (coupled with the Micro E weld head)
• Versatility to weld very small, thin, and delicate metal parts
• Single or Dual Pulse operation
• Low maintenance required
• Touchscreen Interface
• Weld Monitoring
• Weld Head Controls
• Remote Schedule Select
• Weld Counter
• Histogram of weld results
