Field of Dreams

Take a look at how Wisconsin fabricator High Tech Welding uses a portable all-in-one multiprocess power source to gain versatility and increase their welding productivity by 25 to 30 percent on field repair and fabrication jobs.

THE ANSI / AWS WAY TO A SAFE WELDING WORKPLACE

U.S. welding engineers that use industrial arc welding robots can choose from a number of available voluntary industry standards to provide guidance on the subject of robot system safeguard selection. However, differences exist between a highly subjective matrix style of risk assessment and a more focused and structured risk assessment such as the AWS Protocol Method. Here are some reasons why the selection of proper safeguards should be a straightforward process that provides consistent results.

New Robotic Welding Cell Dramatically Increases Robotic Welding Envelope

In order to meet the goal of a sizable increase in their robotic welding envelop, D&S Manufacturing has integrated a new cell system from Wolf Robotics featuring two ABB IRB 2600 six-axis robots, two Lincoln Welding power supplies and an IRBP K servo positioner, all controlled by a single ABB IRC5 MultiMove control.

Improving Welder Safety and Comfort with New Head Protection Technologies

Recent technology advancements in welding helmets not only help to protect welders from lost-time or work-related injury, but they increase productivity by increasing comfort levels. Regardless of the type of head protection a welder chooses, it is critical to make sure that the helmet, PAPR or other such personal protective equipment (PPE) is properly suited for the welding application at hand and also provides the appropriate level of protection.
