Why? Do you understand how fast a capacitor discharges compared to how fast a mosfet of IGBT can switch? The SCR is the correct thing to discharge the capacitor(s). You adjust the amperage/current into the weld by the number or value of the capacitors you use for the weld, not the time that the switch is on. Max I think already told you this.anywhere can find a simple IGBT or MOSFET switch circuit? I mean just simply turn on / turn off the large current, and the on/off time adjustable?
Or you could use a GTO, gate turn off SCR if you really believe that your way is best and what commercial built machines use. Do some more reading on this, I did about a year or so ago. But decided the welds were only worth while for jewelry makers/artists that's who they are marketed to.
