Capacitor Discharge Stud Welding
Capacitor Discharge Stud Welding creates strong, clean welds on thin materials (under 2mm) without reverse marking. Ideal for aluminium, brass, mild steel, and stainless steel applications. Our lightweight, balanced CD tools minimize operator fatigue while delivering rapid recharge times and precise welding action for industries requiring high-quality, non-penetrative fastening solutions.
Drawn Arc Stud Welding
Drawn Arc Stud Welding produces penetrative welds on materials 2mm thick or more, tolerating surface imperfections. Suitable for large diameter studs and curved surfaces. Our microcomputer-controlled DA systems ensure consistent weld quality with adjustable parameters, making them ideal for shipbuilding, construction, and heavy industrial applications requiring durable single-sided fastening.
Automated Stud Welding Systems
Automated Stud Welding Systems combine CNC precision with high-speed welding capabilities. Capable of handling up to 60 studs per minute across multiple axes, these systems optimize production efficiency. Designed for both short and long runs, they feature programmable controls and CE-marked safety compliance for aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing sectors.

Taylor Studwelding runs a slick operation from their HQ in Yorkshire. Their product quality and service delivery is top notch. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend TSW for any projects that would benefit from Stud Welding Systems.
