1. Technology Types:
Laser Vision Tracking: The most mainstream technology. By projecting laser stripes onto the weld seam, a camera captures the deformed stripe image, calculating the precise three-dimensional position, depth, and even bevel width of the weld seam. This is a "pre-emptive" tracking method, where positioning and correction are completed before welding.
Arc Tracking (TACT Sensing): Sensing changes in the distance between the welding torch and the workpiece by detecting minute changes in welding current or voltage. This is a "real-time" tracking method, but is typically suitable for fillet welds or V-grooves with bevels.
2. System Integration and Application: We deeply integrate laser sensors with robots and welding machines.
Application Scenarios:
Gap Compensation: Automatically adapting to poorly assembled workpieces.
Finding the Starting Point: No precise positioning is required; the robot automatically finds the starting point of each weld seam.
Multi-layer, Multi-pass Welding: In thick plate welding, the path for each weld seam is automatically planned.
Value: Adding weld seam tracking sensors to a robotic automated welding equipment system significantly reduces reliance on initial workpiece and fixture accuracy, improving production line flexibility and the first-pass yield of the final weld quality.
