Artificial Intelligence Pipe Welding System
This welding system from ARC Specialties incorporates a six-axis cobot to join the gap between two pipes by using AI to determine paths, gap width, and irregularities during the process.
How to Get Higher Productivity, Lower Cost Welding Operations
The Robotic Nozzle Cleaning Station and Cool Grip water-cooled semi-automatic torch with an integrated flow switch from American Weldquip lower operating and maintenance costs and avoid costly repairs and downtime.
Optical Seam Tracking Manages Critical Welding Concerns
ABB Robotics provides 2.5D or 6D optical seam tracking to manage faster manufacturing processes by compensating for larger part tolerances and increasing material fit-up inaccuracies.
Compact Remote Welding Head for Robotic Laser Welding
For quick welding times and minimal heat input, a FANUC robot welds parts using a robot-mounted, high-speed Compact Remote Welding head controlled by a two-axis servo motor that manipulates the fine-focused beam into a weave shape pattern tailored to the joint and material.
Weld Functions You Should Be Using
Welding and fabrication are complex processes that can greatly benefit from robotic automation. While each application will differ in complexity, the consistent and effective use of certain weld functions can improve quality and enhance productivity while decreasing costs.
Coldwater Machine Names New Quality Manager
Lisa Ruppert now develops, implements and maintains their QMS system and certifications.
Cost-Effective, Flexible Automated Welding Systems
Arc welding robots from Kawasaki Robotics use state-of-the-art technology to match the quality of an expert welder so that a shop can quickly integrate robotic welding into their current processes.
Robotic Welding Torch Sales Soar
The shift to automation continues for superior weld quality and improved output.
Highly Efficient Robotic Torch for Automated Welding
Using powerful GMAW gas flow technology, the Metabot torch from Boostweld is effective at a greater distance from the weld joint than other torches, enabling top quality welds in the tightest of gaps and less time spent setting up welding fixtures.
Consumables and Guns for Semi-Automatic and Robotic Welding
Bernard and Tregaskiss provide semi-automatic and robotic MIG gun and consumable solutions.
Added Value: The Importance of Aftermarket Care
You’ve covered every detail in upfront costs and factory floorspace, but what about technical support and service after production starts? Whether buying one robot or hundreds, having access to diverse support services to ensure peak robot performance is vital to maximizing your return on investment. Here’s why.
Weld Nut Sensors Increase Process Reliability
An economical alternative to more expensive optical or vision-based systems, IP67-rated weld nut sensors from Turck reliably detect the presence or absence of a nut welded to sheet metal to ensure efficient and accurate production in welding applications.
