The welding positioner can better present the weld seam in the ideal welding position and can be used with various welding machines to meet the welding needs of different fields. In order to better use the welding positioner and help stabilize the welding quality, it is necessary to understand the functions of the welding positioner and follow reasonable operating procedures to improve utilization.
With the continuous development of social economy and science and technology, welding positioners are also constantly being updated and replaced. They have evolved from traditional single degree of freedom small capacity welding positioners to double degree of freedom, multi degree of freedom large capacity welding positioners, which can change the weld angle in multiple dimensions and improve welding flexibility. In practical applications, welding positioners can improve welding efficiency while ensuring product welding quality.
Functions of welding positioner:
1. Improve welding accuracy. Welding positioners are mainly used to achieve circumferential welds. During the operation of welding robots, the flexibility of joints is limited for workpieces with complex welds, which can easily lead to insufficient filling of welds. Welding positioners can supplement the flexibility of welding robots by rotating the weld to the ideal range, and the welding gun can automatically find the position and specifications of the weld, helping to improve welding accuracy.
2. Stable welding quality. The welding positioner can achieve coordinated motion with the welding robot through a control system to meet different welding conditions. The joints of the welding robot and the welding positioner can achieve asynchronous coordination, which can be used for the welding work of medium thick plate welded parts. Each layer of weld seam can be connected to help stabilize the welding quality.
3. Strong carrying capacity. The load-bearing capacity of welding positioners varies depending on the model. Users need to choose the appropriate welding positioner according to their own workpiece specifications, which is beneficial for ensuring rotation stability. It is worth noting that the workpiece cannot exceed the load-bearing capacity of the welding positioner, which may cause damage to the welding positioner.
4. Realize coordinated movement. The welding positioner and welding robot achieve coordinated motion, using a control system with coordinated control function, which can achieve coordinated motion between the two. The welding positioner and welding robot have asynchronous coordinated motion and synchronous coordinated motion.
Synchronous coordinated motion refers to the simultaneous operation of welding robots and welding positioners, which can weld complex workpieces. Non synchronous coordination refers to the movement of the welding positioner after the welding robot has welded the workpiece.
Welding positioners can reduce production costs and improve workers' working conditions. More and more users are using welding positioners for production, and their application quantity and scale in the future market will continue to increase.
