Conversion to UNICONTROL

Control 86 has reached end-of-life! Conversion to UNICONTROL is imminent.

We can no longer guarantee the function and support of control 86. For more than 10 years we have been informing our customers about this situation. Due to discontinuation of specific electronic parts on CPU components, tolerance problem on components for the PCB’s and frequency converters that are no longer available, there is no guarantee that parts can be supplied and will work on the old control 86.

If the CPU or one of the PCB’s or frequency converters fails and no replacement can be supplied or is working, the machine will come to a stop if not converted to a complete new control cabinet. Therefore, we strongly recommend having your BWM or MWM converted to a new control cabinet UNICONTROL to guarantee an ongoing availability of your welder.

Please contact our agent or your Soudronic contact for more information.
