This automated welding station can be used as a stand-alone workcell, or integrated within a CIM system. When used in a CIM system, the robot loads and unloads parts to and from the CIM conveyor in addition to performing arc welding and part manipulation tasks.
The system complies with strict safety standards.
This welding station includes a robotic arm that combines an industrial/education, articulated 5 or 6-axis robot arm and robotic controller. The robot is ideal for small part handling, assembly, packaging and other small part applications.
This turnkey automated welding station gives students training and skills in robotic programming and control, and automated welding processes.
