The TR-16A Touch Retract Welding Torch is a great choice for those scaling up from R&D to manufacturing, offering ease of integration and automation.

The TR-16A Touch Retract Torch is a lightweight, handheld tool that allows easy manipulation of battery cans and tab materials in a bench-top, R&D environment. The system can be used with typical prototype tooling. The system has been extensively tested for welding copper, nickel, and aluminium battery tab materials up to a thickness of 0.5 millimetres (mm) onto 18650 and 2170 battery can material.
Compared to traditional resistance welding technologies, the TR-16A Touch Retract Torch can achieve effective welding of copper with relative ease. Its low voltage operation also offers safety advantages for hand assembly applications compared to many tungsten inert gas (TIG) systems.
At a lower cost than a typical laser system, the system is a more affordable option for low volume battery pack prototyping, racing vehicles, and small to medium scale battery pack rework. The flexible TR-16A enables battery pack concepts to be quickly manufactured
