What is the required maintenance for welding robots?
Answer:
Welding robots have their own set of maintenance needs. Robotic welding systems have to keep everything regulated correctly - torch angle, wire feed, gas flow. As with most equipment, when it comes to welding robots, a little maintenance goes a long way. RobotWorx recommends paying attention to these items for the best results:
* Proper connection of welding leads: Positive from power source to wire feeder and negative from power source to work piece, table, and fixture.
* Wire feeder: The wire drive roll needs to have the proper tension and the rollers must be the proper size.
* Welding Gun: Check the condition of torch contact tips, nozzles, and make sure there is the right amount of gas flowing through the gun.
* Robot Tool Center Point (TCP): Make sure you've programmed this point correctly. It controls the torch's position and makes it possible for the robot to perform the proper movements.
