ABSTRACT:
A modular welding apparatus comprises a welding head assembly having a welding head with an integral actuating assembly. A foot treadle initiates motion of the welding head. A conductive base member is spaced from the welding head. A welding power supply has one lead connected to the welding head and a second lead connected to the base member. An interchangeable welding module is disposed on the base member in electrical contact therewith. The welding module includes a conductive support plate and a locking cam for detachably attaching the support plate to the base member. A welding mandrel comprising one welding electrode is in contact with the support plate. An insulating member is attached to the support plate and an articulated welding electrode assembly is attached to the insulating member. The articulated welding electrode assembly is in communication with the actuating assembly whereby the articulated welding electrode assembly may be activated to abut the welding mandrel in precise alignment therewith.
