Lightning is one of nature’s most destructive events, so it is essential to protect people, the environment and infrastructures from its effects, as well as guaranteeing the continuity of services and safeguarding material and cultural assets. The purpose of a lightning protection system is to capture lightning, conduct its current safely to earth, dissipate in the ground and protect against the secondary effects of lightning.
Exothermic welding or aluminothermic welding is a chemical process that creates a permanent molecular union of two or more conductors. This fusion results in a more reliable and durable connection, as well as providing equal or greater conductivity than mechanical bonding.
APLIWELD® Selector is a tool, aimed at all professionals who need to perform exothermic welding, designed to facilitate the specification and preparation of the material in any project with aluminothermic welding. Thanks to the APLIWELD® Selector software, the user obtains product references and quantities of each material for all the connections required in a project, quickly and efficiently.
Exothermic welding, also known as aluminothermic welding, is a chemical process which creates a permanent molecular bonding of two or more conductors. As a result of this fusion, the connection is more reliable and durable than the mechanical union, and its conductivity is equal to or greater than the metals it connects.
