The i5 features a new medium frequency trans-gun capable of delivering over 13,000A with over 1,000 lbs (450dAN) of squeeze pressure. The i5 is designed to handle all new ultra high strength steels including Boron, etc. The operator can chose between two different modes AUTO and MANUAL for the two-sided spot welding.
Measure
At the press of a button, the i5 measures the thickness of the metals automatically using the latest optical technology.
Sense
The i5 then senses the metals to be welded from a pre-delivered current to determine the type of metal.
Weld
The i5 features a new medium frequency trans-gun capable of delivering over 13,000A with over 1,000 lbs (450 daN) of squeeze pressure. Based on the thickness and resistance feedback information, the i5 delivers the correct weld power every time regardless of type of metal or thickness.
Notice the consistency of the weld nuggets and the heat affected zone. The welds stays very consistent welding 2 layers (2.4mm), 3 layers, 4 layers and 5 layers (6.0mm) as well as welding through boron steel. No weld settings were changed. The i5 automatically adjusted to the correct settings. Smart, very smart.
Resting Position
Open Position
One of the most important features of the spot gun is its “double-acting” ability. Unlike any other trans-gun on the market the i5 can spread the electrodes wide open with the push of a button without the operator ever having to remove his or her hands from their original positions. That not only saves time but also assures that the operator doesn’t to have to alter their holding position in order to loosen and move the weld arm manually only to then re-tighten.

X-Type Design
The X-type design is used on certain applications where the C-type can’t reach. 90% of all welding needs can be done with the C-type but for some radiator support and truck bed pinch welds, the X-adapter is priceless. This invention from Pro Spot now makes it possible to weld where you never could before!
Simple and Strong
No assembly needed. No cables needed. The current is transferred via a pivoting copper conductor which also allows for the build up of squeeze pressure.
A Perfect Fit
The C to X Adapter had to be completely re-designed from the ground up to make the best use of the i5’s ultra high-squeeze-pressure capability and water cooled features.
The i5’s screen housing can swivel a full 270°, and while we’ve gone digital, we still include a physical power switch and pressure gauge for convenience.
In the rear of the i5 you can locate the cooling fans, coolant tank cap and level indicator, plus the power cord and air inlet. This is also where the overhead boom rests.
A hidden drawer has been installed to place everyday items that a welder might need to keep at hand such as extra tips, or single-sided welding bits.
The i5 has tool racks installed on both sides and places for all of the extension arms that come standard with the machine. There are also upper and lower trays to lay tools on within reach.
The i5 is available with single-sided welding systems. Quick change between double-sided and single-sided welding. I5 is pre-programmed with 60 single-sided programs.
