SPARKIE ii Mini Fusion Welder. Fusion welding has been a mainstay in the jewelry industry for many years. Fusion provides a fast, clean bond between similar and dissimilar metals when using fusion findings. Low temperature (pot metal) and lead bearing alloys are not compatible with fusion welding. SPARKIE is a capacitive discharge welder. A large capacitor is used to store an electrical charge, like a battery. That charge is released through a fusion finding as it touches the surface of the receiving metal. A small explosion occurs which blows all of the oxides and gasses away from the weld. For the next millionth of a second a vacuum exists, allowing similar and dissimilar metals to bond in the residual heat.
