Digitizing Your Welding Operation Could Be the First Step to Higher Overall Throughput
A factory has many moving parts and processes. Connecting welding data to up- and downstream processes makes identifying the source of manufacturing problems easier and uncovers true costs across the entire operation.
Flexible Robotic Welding System Reduces Nonvalue-Added Labor by 60%
U.S.-based ACS Industries had a lock on the market for standard attachments – buckets, forks, blades, etc. – for construction equipment, but needed to cost-effectively fabricate specialized implements for related markets. Six-axis robotic welding clinched $1.5 million in new business while lowering labor costs 60%.
ESPRIT CAM and Alma CAM Create Robot Additive DED Programming
The partnership has resulted in a validated workflow that provides end users with dedicated additive toolpath planning and programming, as well as robot programming, simulation, verification, collision detection, and code generation. Engineers can also use the technology to achieve the above functions for subtractive finishing.
Heavy-duty Helmet Shields Against Welding Fumes, Particulates
ESAB’s Savage A40 PAPR has a two-stage replaceable filtration cartridge that meets NIOSH certification and removes 99.9 percent of airborne particles. Providing comfort, performance and value, this helmet will be available at the end of January 2021.
Cool Factor Outside, High-Tech Welding Helmet Inside
Miller Electric’s Metal Matrix and Gear Box helmets have the graphical identity that resonate with welders while giving them the protection they need. The Digital Elite and Classic Series helmets have built-in technology that automatically activates for optimal optical safety.
Protect Welders’ Eyes with True-Color, Auto-Darkening Filters
Weldcote introduces high-definition technology for passive-style welding helmets designed to reduce eye fatigue. Offering a view area of 5.15 square inches, the filters come in four choices of shade.
Understanding Welding Slag in Flux-Cored Processes
Slag is more than a bothersome byproduct. It plays an important role in ensuring good weld quality, and the various slag systems also impact a wire’s welding characteristics.
Plug-N-Play Rack Holds Six Welding Machines
Featuring an all-aluminum power distribution panel, lift eyes, fork pockets, and heavy-duty casters, Trystar’s 9 kVA weld rack provides an integrated and portable solution for welding applications.
Configure the Ultimate Welding Cell
Mix and match Flexturs welding tables, Gridlok mount systems, and fixture accessories as needed to increase efficiency by eliminating costly and time-consuming jigs. The wheeled workstations are quickly and easily reconfigured and relocated as needed.
Programmable Heavy-Duty Welding Positioner
Pemamek’s PEMA Skymaster PRO welding positioner enables the operator to preprogram work cycles and handling positions for workpieces weighing up to 39 tons. The control dashboard is managed via any Wi-Fi device.
