PUK fine welding in dental laboratory

In use every day

Extremely short welding pulse times enable high-quality welded joints on workpieces < 0.15 mm material thickness
(z. e.g. in orthodontic constructions) as well as in heat-sensitive areas (e.g. e.g. in the vicinity of plastic or ceramic parts).
Due to the wide performance range of the PUK D6, stable welded joints can be produced even on very massive parts such as bridges, bars and model cast prostheses.
It is recommended to use appropriate welding wires for this purpose

“Blind operation” through one-hand operation: Concentration remains on the workpiece!
Even more powerful LED illumination in our new premium welding microscopes. More uniform illumination of the working area – more flexible use of the microscope: These microscopes can also be used as full-fledged working microscopes – not only for welding!
New: Setting of all functions, the parameters power, pulse duration and menu navigation with only one joystick rotary control
Individual device setup via the settings menu
Very low, controllable heat generation

Fast amortization

Low acquisition costs
Very good price-performance ratio
Facilitation and time savings during repairs and soldering
Low costs for consumables
Low argon consumption
Maintenance free technology

At home in the dental lab: the new PUK D6

Fine welding instead of soldering

Strong and long-lasting heat exposure during conventional TIG welding or brazing with the flame is often undesirable or intolerable in dental technology. PUK welding in this case not only saves time, but also avoids unnecessary material consumption.

Biocompatibility for any dental prosthesis

PUK welding, unlike brazing, uses alloys of the same type and thus avoids any unnecessary mix of materials.
This ensures biocompatibility in both the fabrication and repair of dental restorations.

Compact and versatile

When precision, reliability and controllability are required, the PUK D6 is the first choice, making it the ideal complement to CAD/CAM design and additive processes as well as classic casting techniques.

Unique functionality

In addition to the classic TIG micro-pulse welding technique, the PUK D6 also offers the practical and proven retention welding function for fast and stable denture repairs or extensions.

Other features in the overview

The retention welding mode

Simple, time-saving and inexpensive procedure to produce stable retention pins in just a few seconds.
(Ø 1.2 - 2 mm) to be welded onto existing workpieces - for repairs, extensions or new fabrications.
In a fraction of a second, an extremely stable connection is established by means of a special adapter - without any significant heat development on the workpiece.
No re-welding and no post-processing of the weld or its surroundings necessary. This allows model casting repairs or extensions to be completed much faster than with conventional techniques.

Automatic mode or foot switch

Help for safe work with difficult workpiece constructions
Simple activation: Press the foot switch for 3 seconds - blue symbol appears in the top right of the display - welding is now triggered by pressing the foot switch.

Fixing welding function

Very simple and efficient method of fixing workpieces for subsequent welding or soldering. E.g. for a fixation weld of a separated bridge on the working model or to fix wire and construction elements.

Joining of two metal parts at their point of contact by means of resistance welding - the parts can thus be "tacked" to each other for final joining by means of PUK welding, or to fix them for a soldering process.
especially suitable for machining metals with low electrical conductivity, e.g. stainless steel or titanium.

Micromode

Possibility of welding material thicknesses even below 0.2 mm, e.g. for wires or orthodontic bands, in an even more controlled manner.

New speed function

A significantly faster welding cycle enables an even more continuous work flow.
Possibility to shape applied material as desired or also to greatly improve the welding properties of particularly heat-conductive dental alloys.

The operating concept of the new PUK D6
