Spot Welder with MCU

Description

  • This is a Mosfet Based Spot welder made using IRFB7430 mosfet paired with a OLED display, rotary encoder and ATMEGA328P IC. This is a projet inspired by This Project
  • This is a two PCB Design and made such that one can order the PCB as a whole and has to separate the PCBs by Cutting manually to save cost.
  • It has two Aluminum parts that attach to the PCB since the circuit will be dealing high current of about 400A in a single pulse
  • The pulse timing can be adjusted using the rotary encode and is very simple to use.
  • It has a onboard programmer for the ease of programming the board
  • Flash using Arduino IDE with ATmega328P bootloader and 9600 baud rate
  • The Code is not tested yet on my design

Parts used

  • IRFB7430 Mosfet
  • Atmega328p as the MCU
  • 0.96 128x64 oled display
  • ABR-PR-12APBTX90 Amaron 12v 9Ah Battey for high short pulse current
  • 6AWG wire to handle the high current
  • 4010 fan
  • 2mm solid copper wire

Usage guide

We need to connect the GND of the Battery from the IN sign and connect to the U shaped aluminium portion followed by the rectangular aluminium block as one of the probes the other probe will the positive terminal of the battery.
