Robot Welding Torch

Fronius has launched the world’s most compact push-pull Robot Welding Torch: the Robacta Drive TPS/i. Thanks to its compact design and refined engineering, the component accessibility and TCP precision of the welding torch has been improved even further. What’s more, the dynamic of the drive unit has been increased to 33 m/s² - ten-times that of its predecessor generation. A consistent, modular structure not only eases the workload of servicing engineers, but simplifies the storage of spare and replacement parts as well. With all these benefits the Robacta Drive TPS/i allows even more welding tasks to be economically performed with robots. Available as either a gas-cooled or water-cooled version, the welding torch can now be fitted to robots capable of supporting just 3 kg thanks to its extra-small interference profile and reduced weight. Yet despite its small size, the lightweight torch packs a powerful punch thanks to its three-phase stepper motor: a maintenance-free unit for smooth wire travel at a speed of up to 25 m/min. The speed is kept constant by an integrated, highly accurate rotary position encoder, while two driven feed rollers transfer the speed to the wire electrode. In the event of a change of the overall system, the TCP accuracy of 0.5 mm is guaranteed.
