Laser welding robot is an industrial robot engaged in laser welding (including cutting and spraying). According to the definition of International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that industrial robot belongs to standard welding robot, industrial robot is a multi-purpose, repeatable programmable automatic control manipulator with three or more programmable axes, which is used in the field of industrial automation.
With the development of electronic technology, computer technology, numerical control and robot technology, automatic laser welding robot has become increasingly mature since it was used in production in the 1960s.
Laser welding robot features
1. It can stabilize and improve the welding quality and reflect the welding quality in numerical form.
2. Improve labor productivity.
3. Improve the labor intensity of workers and work in hazardous environment.
4. The requirements for workers' operation technology are reduced.
5. Laser welding robot shortens the preparation period of product transformation and reduces the corresponding equipment investment.
Laser welding robot has been widely used in all walks of life
1. The production line of laser welding robot is relatively simple to connect multiple workstations (units) with workpiece conveying lines to form a production line. This production line still maintains the characteristics of single station, that is, each station can only use the selected workpiece fixture and welding robot program to weld the predetermined workpiece, and this line cannot weld other workpiece for a period of time before changing the fixture and program.
2. At present, laser welding robots have been widely used in the automobile manufacturing industry, such as the welding of automobile chassis, seat frame, guide rail, muffler, hydraulic torque converter, etc., especially 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 abroad. This technology can improve the welding quality, and even try to replace some arc welding operations with it. The movement time in short distance is also greatly shortened. The company recently launched a low height spot welding robot to weld the lower parts of the car body.
3. As an important part of marine engineering equipment technology, marine welding has now become an indispensable foundation and support technology for marine resources development and marine engineering construction.
