The application of industrial robots in automobile welding
welding technology, as the traditional basic process and technology of manufacturing, has not been applied in industry for a long time, but its development is very rapid. Welding robot is an advanced welding equipment developed on the basis of industrial robot. It is an industrial robot engaged in welding (including cutting and spraying). It is mainly used in the field of industrial automation. It is widely used in the manufacturing of automobiles and their parts, motorcycles, engineering machinery and other industries. It is widely used in the four production processes of stamping, welding, coating and final assembly of automobile production, among which arc welding, coating and general assembly are the most widely used Mainly spot welding
typical welding robot systems have the following forms: welding robot workstation, welding robot production line, welding machine. Welding robot system is generally suitable for medium and small batch production. The welds of the welded parts can be short and many, and the shape is complex. Flexible welding line is especially suitable for the situation that there are many kinds of products and few quantities of each batch. The special welding machine is suitable for products with large batch and slow modification, and it is also suitable for workpieces with small and long weld joints and regular shapes. As for which automatic welding production form to choose, it needs to be determined according to the actual situation of the enterprise
typical application in the automotive field
looking at the welding status of the entire automotive industry, it is not difficult to analyze that the welding development trend of the automotive industry is to develop automated flexible production systems. Industrial robots, due to the combination of automatic production and flexible production, have been widely and rapidly used in car production in recent years. In welding, spot welding robots and arc welding robots are mainly used. Especially in recent years, domestic automobile manufacturers attach great importance to the automation of 3D pre forming processes such as welding, which can be completed within 60s cycle time (the picture is from eelcee company). For example, the automation rate of 13 production lines in Jetta body welding workshop introduced by FAW is more than 80%, and each line is controlled by computer (plc-3) to automatically complete the transmission and welding of workpieces. Welding is carried out by a total of 61 R30 polar coordinate robots and G60 elbow robots. The robot drive is controlled by microcomputer, with digital and text display, and tape recorder input and output programs. The action of the robot adopts point-to-point sequential trajectory, which has a high level of welding automation, which not only improves the working conditions, improves product quality and productivity, but also reduces material consumption
similar high-level production lines have been introduced in Shanghai, Wuhan and other places. But after all, these are far from meeting the needs of the rapid development of China's national automobile industry. We must adhere to technological innovation, vigorously accelerate the development of high-efficiency and energy-saving welding new materials, new processes and new equipment, develop applied robot technology, develop portable and smart intelligent equipment, and establish an efficient and economical welding automation system. We must use computers and information technology to transform traditional industries and improve grades
