WELDING ROBOT [8 records]

Record 1 2025-02-28

English

Subject field(s)
  • Applications of Automation
CONT

Trajectory Accuracy : Some tasks require accurate movement along the path, such as welding, and not only at the final position. Another example is the collaboration of more robot arms where the precise and synchronized movements are crucial. For these tasks, low network delay is desired if external information shall be respected in the trajectory planning.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Automatisation et applications
CONT

L'exactitude de trajectoire représente l'écart entre une trajectoire commandée et la ligne moyenne des trajectoires atteintes.

  • Applications of Automation
  • Lasers and Masers
  • Electronic Circuits Technology
  • Welding and Soldering (Metals)
CONT

Laser robots are well established in the material processing industry. They are used for cutting, welding and marking of work pieces made from diverse materials. In these applications, it is important to move the focal spot of the laser beam exactly along the desired machining contour on the work piece. Available laser sources are powerful enough to allow for very high machining velocities, which, however, are often beyond the capabilities of the robot arm that guides the laser beam.

CONT

Depuis l'invention du premier laser en 1960, plusieurs secteurs industriels se sont penchés sur cette technologie et cherchent à tirer profit de ses avantages. […] Depuis son avènement dans l'industrie automobile […], ce secteur a connu une révolution sans précédent, grâce à la multifonctionnalité des robots laser, comprenant le traitement thermique des matériaux, la découpe des métaux et le soudage des pièces de carrosserie.

Record 3 2017-01-11

English

Subject field(s)
  • Arc Welding
CONT

An implementation of model-based visual feedback for robot arc welding of thin sheet steel.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Soudage à l'arc
CONT

Soudage à l'arc robotisé. La mise en œuvre de robots de soudage s'est particulièrement développée avec les procédés MIG et MAG, dans les opérations précédemment manuelles et devenues automatiques. Après le soudage par points, c'est l'application la plus remarquable. Le robot le mieux adapté est de type articulé anthropomorphe [...] Lorsque le volume de travail dépasse celui du robot, un axe de déplacement supplémentaire par translation est la solution la mieux adaptée.

Record 4 2002-07-31

English

Subject field(s)
  • Welding and Soldering (Metals)
CONT

A real-time digital video-image-processing system contributes to the automation of weld-seam tracking. The tracking system makes no contact with the seam. A small television camera views the seam just ahead of the point currently being welded. The welding arc provides the illumination. Periodically, a frame grabber digitizes the video image and stores it in a computer memory as gray-scale values. The seam is located by analyzing Hough-transform arrays of derivatives of digitally-filtered image data. The information on the location and orientation of the seam is used as feedback by a welding robot to correct deviations of the electrode from the seam as welding continues.

Subject field(s)
  • Applications of Automation
CONT

Output contacts(switch contacts operated by the robot) provide a robot with some control over the application, such as, turning on or off motors, heaters, grippers, welding equipment, etc. Controlling output contacts becomes part of the robot routine. The robot is taught to close(or open) a contact at a particular point in the routine. Whenever that routine is replayed, that contact is closed(opened) at the same point at which it was taught.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Applications of Automation
CONT

Welding Robot Visual Sensor Controller... This product is a control device for an arc-discharge-type welding robot for welding complex shapes. The position of and distance to the weld target are detected via a laser beam that is reflected by the object being welded. Even the most complicated contour is followed automatically to perform continuous welding.

Record 7 1998-03-11

English

Subject field(s)
  • Applications of Automation
  • Machine-Tooling (Metallurgy)
DEF

A robot used for spotwelding and consisting of three main parts : a mechanical structure comprising the body, arm and wrist; a welding tool; and a control unit. The mechanical structure serves to position the welding tool at any point within the working volume and orient the tool in any given direction so that it can perform the appropriate task.

OBS

An individual with no experience might think that a spot-welding robot and an arc-welding robot are the same but with different welding equipment. Actually, these are two different robotic systems; the control of spot-welding robot is based upon a point-to-point operation... arc welding... requires a continuous-path system.

Subject field(s)
  • Applications of Automation
  • Facilities and Equipment (Metal Joining)
CONT

Vertically articulated six-axis welding robot. MRV-6's compact, symmetric three-axis wrist lets it handle difficult welding operations. The small head and curved torch reach tight spaces, and a rigid arm and direct drives provide repeatability and reliability.
