Fixtureless Arc Welding Robots: [ Ссылка ]
In this robotic arc welding demonstration, FANUC America showcases the benefits of using fixtureless welding - an innovative solution that offers a number of benefits when compared to fixed welding.
In the demonstration, a FANUC LR Mate 200iD/7L robot picks an auger tooth from an in-process rack and presents it to a iRVision-equipped camera to determine the part's orientation. The LR Mate 200iD/7L then re-grips the part at a re-grip station, during which time the FANUC ARC Mate 0iB robot - seen on the left - runs through a weld torch maintenance station.
The two robots then simulate dual-arm motion hardface welding. Fixtureless welding is a simple setup that allows for flexible positioning as well as quick changeover of parts. Now we see the weld cycle run as a live weld. After welding, the LR Mate 200iD/7L performs post-process inspection to validate hardfacing. If the inspection fails, the robot will apply additional weld material and inspect again. If the inspection passes the LR Mate 200iD/7L will place the finished part into a bin below the pick rack.
Fixtureless welding from FANUC America is a cost effective solution versus traditional fixed welding, and reduces floor space by eliminating the need for dedicated floor-mounted tooling.
