Product Name
Leister (162.605 & 162.499) HEMTEK K-ST Stationary Welder, includes tooling to enable Keder welding
Brief Description
The Leister HEMTEK K-ST is a stationary hot-air welding machine specifically engineered for the efficient and precise welding of technical textiles. It comes with specialized tooling that enables Keder welding, and is also capable of producing other seams such as hems and pole pockets.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Keder production for various textile applications- Tent and tarpaulin welding- Advertising banner welding- Protective cover welding- Awning and wind blocker welding- Truck tarpaulin welding- Creating hems and pole pockets on technical textiles
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Tarp, Fabric, Awning Manufacturing- Sign & Display- Plastic Fabrication- General Manufacturing (for companies producing technical textile products)
Special and Unique Features
- Specifically designed for Keder welding with an adjustable piping guide that accommodates diameters from 3-13mm- Stationary design with a quick-clamp lock, allowing for easy mounting on almost any work table- Foot pedal operation provides hands-free material guidance, enhancing precision and user comfort- Features tool-free hem guide setting for quick adjustments- Includes an integrated cool-down mode to gently cool the machine and prolong the heating element's life- Equipped with a large display for intuitive setting of welding parameters such as temperature, speed, and air volume- Achieves welding speeds of up to 12 m/min (39.4 ft/min)- Eliminates the need for additional hot-air hand tools for finishing, as it completes welding in a single step
Key Properties
- Utilizes hot-air welding technology- Available in 120 V (1800 W) and 230 V (2350 W) versions- Operates at a frequency of 50/60 Hz- Offers an adjustable temperature range from 100 to 650 °C- Provides an adjustable welding speed from 0.8 to 12 m/min- Features an 8 mm welding nozzle/seam width, with various guides for different applications- Capable of welding piping with diameters ranging from 3-13 mm- Weighs 27 kg- Manufactured in Switzerland, ensuring high-quality standards
Surface Compatibility
- PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)- PE (Polyethylene)- PP (Polypropylene)- Various thermoplastic materials- Coated fabrics- Woven Polypropylene, Woven Polyethylene, PVC Laminate, Polyurethane Coated, Acrylic
Known backups / known substitutes
- Leister HEMTEK ST: A similar stationary welder from Leister, suitable for hems and pole pockets, but not specifically optimized for Keder production- Leister VARIANT T1: A welding machine designed for overlap, hemming, and pipe welding- Leister UNIPLAN 300/500: Automatic welders for overlap, hem, and pipe welding applications- Miller Weldmaster T300 Extreme Keder System: An automated system offering high-speed Keder production- Weldon HF Automatic HF Keder Welders: High-frequency welding machines for Keder production- Leister hot-air hand tools (e.g., TRIAC AT, TRIAC ST, ELECTRON ST): Manual tools used for smaller tasks or finishing
Comparison Note
The Leister HEMTEK K-ST stands out as a specialized stationary hot-air welder, offering superior efficiency and precision for Keder production compared to manual hot-air tools. While other Leister models like the HEMTEK ST can handle hems and pole pockets, the K-ST is uniquely designed and optimized for the specific requirements of Keder welding. For very large-scale Keder production, fully automated systems such as those from Miller Weldmaster may offer even higher speeds.
