Intelligent welding workstation for pump truck chassis.
The intelligent welding workstation for pump truck chassis consists of side gantry, dual-axis positioner, fully automatic clamping hydraulic follow clamps, and other components. The workstation can achieve flexible welding for different specifications and models of chassis; combined with low-pressure positioning and arc tracking systems, it can easily handle complex weld seams on the chassis.
After the project is put into production, it significantly improves production efficiency and saves labor costs; the precision error of welded workpieces is small, and the quality of weld seams is stable; at the same time, the equipment has a high safety factor, greatly reducing labor risks.
1. Advantages of the Solution:
1.1 The positioner can rotate and flip, and the robot has X, Y, Z axis movement, ensuring welding quality.
The positioner's ±180° flipping and the robot's axis distance movement can effectively avoid interference between the fixture and workpiece, while also enabling operations in complex and narrow spaces, ultimately effectively stabilizing and improving welding quality.
1.2 The combination of high-quality equipment configuration and intelligent integrated control systems effectively ensures welding efficiency.
1.3 The fast speed of external servo and the advantages of linkage are beneficial for cross welding, reducing the deformation of welded workpieces.
1.4 Equipped with a visual information data collection system, it can timely display welding parameters, welding process records, production status, and other information.
