What Are The Uses Of Welding Robots?

The application of Industrial Robots underwater, as an important part of marine engineering equipment technology, marine welding has now become an indispensable foundation and supporting technology for marine resource development and marine engineering construction. After a large number of process tests and formulation adjustments, the welding materials developed and special equipment for underwater welding have been successfully used in offshore projects such as Shengli Oilfield Offshore Oil Production Platform, Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge.

In the production of automobiles, Intelligent Industrial Robots have been widely used in the automobile manufacturing industry. The welding of automobile chassis, seat frames, guide rails, mufflers and torque converters has been widely used in the welding production of automobile chassis. Toyota has decided to use spot welding as a standard to equip all its spot welding robots in Japan and overseas. Using this technique can improve the welding quality, so even trying to use it to replace some arc welding operations. The movement time in a short distance is also greatly shortened. The company recently introduced a low-profile spot welding robot, which is used to weld the lower parts of the car body.

Industrial Robots

This short spot welding robot can also be assembled with a higher robot to work together on the upper part of the car body, thereby shortening the length of the entire welding production line. Domestically produced Santana, Passat, Buick, Sail, Polo and other rear axles, sub-frames, rocker arms, suspensions, shock absorbers and other car chassis parts are mostly safety components and main components mainly based on MIG welding process Using stamping welding, the average thickness of the board is 1.5 ~ 4mm. The welding is mainly in the form of lap joints and corner joints. The welding quality requirements are quite high. The quality of the welding directly affects the safety performance of the car. After the application of robot welding, the appearance and internal quality of the welded parts are greatly improved, and the stability of the quality is ensured, the labor intensity is reduced, and the labor environment is improved.

The Mag Welding Robot production line is relatively simple by connecting multiple workstations (units) with a workpiece conveying line to form a production line. This production line still maintains the characteristics of a single station, that is, each station can only use the selected workpiece fixture and welding robot program to weld the predetermined workpiece. This line cannot be welded for a period of time before the fixture and program are changed. Other artifacts.

The other is the welding flexible production line (FMS-W). The flexible line is also composed of multiple stations. The difference is that the workpiece to be welded is clamped on a pallet in a uniform form, and the pallet can be matched with the positioner of any station on the line and be automatically clamped. The welding robot system first recognizes the number of the pallet or the workpiece, and automatically calls the welding procedure for welding such a workpiece. In this way, each station can weld different workpieces without any adjustment. Welding flexible wire generally has a rail sub-mother car. The sub-mother car can automatically take out the point-fixed workpieces from the storage station and send them to the positioner of the welding robot workstation with vacancies. You can also remove the welded workpiece from the workstation and send it to the outflow position of the finished part. The entire flexible welding production line is controlled by a dispatch computer. Therefore, as long as enough workpieces are assembled during the day and put in the storage station, no one or few people can produce at night.

Which type of automated welding production form the factory chooses must be determined according to the actual situation and essentials of the factory. The special welding machine is suitable for products with large batches and slow modification, and the workpiece has a small number of welds, long, and regular shapes (straight, round); the welding robot system is generally suitable for medium and small batch production. Welding seams can be short and numerous, and the shape is more complicated. The flexible welding line is especially suitable for the situation where there are many product varieties and the number of each batch is very small. At present, foreign companies are vigorously promoting the management method of no (small) inventory and production by order (JIT). In this case, the flexible welding line is More appropriate.
