Abstract
A welding gun electrode reshaping device includes a head with satellites supported by a satellite holder to identify between them opposing seats for the gun electrode tip. The satellite holder is powered to be rotated around the seats to move the satellites around the electrode tip zone and cause reshaping of the electrode tip. In the seats there is a support member for the electrode tip with a surface designed for simultaneous smoothing of a 'lense' zone on the electrode tip. A movement mechanism enables positioning of the head in an operational zone.
