Tube Production Used Column Welding Manipulator With 4meter Range
Brief introduction:
Column welding manipulator is used to hold the welding torch instead of welder. It is a platform integrating all welding related components.
Description of column welding manipulator:
- Column welding manipulators are used to locate a weld head to a desired position for welding in a stable and secure manner.
- Once in position, the part is moved during welding to produce high quality welds.
- A column welding manipulator can be used on a wide variety of parts and part shapes.
- Welding is performed using GTAW, PAW, GMAW, FCAW, SAW or YAG Laser.
- In some GMAW, SAW and FCAW welding, the standard boom can be used as a linear welding axis, as these weld processes may not required precise welding motion.
- Column welding manipulators are a versatile and rugged solution to obtain up to 8m of lift and reach to duplicate the function of a highly skilled welder.
- Manual or powered mobile sub-based cars can be included for varying length weldments and procedures.
Benefits over welding the part manually:
- Able to achieve consistent weld results;
- Able to maintain weld head over weld joint in a stable position during the weld;
- Increases arc-on time and overall productivity;
- Provides ability to have multi-weld stations using only one weld head, increasing your return on investment;
- Reduced operator fatigue;
- Reduced consumable costs;
- Ability to have two welding process at one welding station by using both ends of the boom;
- These benefits greatly reduce the time to prepare a part for welding and the time to finish a part after welding. Also, rework time will be reduced and part scrap will be cut.
Column welding manipulator feature:
- Working with Column welding manipulator is the next step in automated welding.
- The column welding manipulators are initi ally designed to save labor costs especially at lager workpieces and when a column welding manipulator is been used in combinati on with a positi oner or rotator.
- Designed and robustly build to withstand rugged work environments.
- Smooth 360 degree lockable rotation.
- All vertical and horizontal guidings are precisely machined for smooth movement.
- Solid state inverter for variable speed of horizontal travel and travel carriage.
- Worm gearbox for vertical travel via AC motor, complete with brake for added safety.
- High tensile roller chain used for vertical travel with the addition of a counter balance system with the column that provides smooth, effortless travel.
- Anti-fall device and limit switches for all motions.
