Robotic Welding

The course is designed to introduce learners to robotic welding and provide the skills necessary to perform welding tasks with an industrial robot.

i

Description

Learner Profile:

Participants should ideally have experience in welding.

Learners should be familiar with robotic operation and be comfortable in moving the robot with the different coordinate systems. Learners are recommended to first take the Intermediate 3-day Robotics course to give them the necessary competency in motion programming.

What you will get:

· Perform a variety of welding operations with a KUKA robot.
· Understand the key principles of robotic welding.
· Operate a Robotic Welding station through an HMI.

    Course Modules

    1. Safety when working with an industrial robotic


    2. Basic knowledge of the structure of a robot system


    3. Moving the robot manually, axes and cartesian jogging


    4. Starting and executing robot programs manually and in automatic mode


    5. Human-machine communication, robot states (I/O signals, timers, cyclical flags, counters)


    6. Reading and interpreting robot controller messages


    7. Introduction to robotic welding and overview of the applications and industries where robotic welding is used


    8. Robot Control with ArcTech application software – introduce technology package needed to plan, configure and carry out welding tasks


    9. Configuring welding parameters via the robot and weld source interfaces


    10. Generate the program structure of a welding routine and understand robot positioning while welding – setting angle of attack and working angle


    11. Execute a series of different welds – flat weld, butt weld and welding around a pipe


    12. Learn about the different weave patterns that can be utilised when welding
