Particular challenges To correct the effect of the tolerances of the parts, the welding robots path in conventional applications is usually adjusted, by means of a time consuming manual correction (teaching). The warping effect caused by the thermal expansion however cannot be compensated this way. For this purpose, QuellTech offers a perfectly tailored seam tracking solution, which is based on a QuellTech 2D-Laserline Sensor of the Q4 family. The method consists in measurement of the real position and width immediately ahead of the welding process. The laser sensor captures the real dimension of the weld bead, and the software used for this process simultaneously sends the nominal position to the robot. The robot performs a correction movement in X or Z position according to this measurement. This way not only the deviation caused by tolerances, but also the warping effect can be compensated – and the weldment takes place exactly at the required position.

Embossing punching is an important technique in the automated production of car parts, guided by robots. A laser system with a sensor harness measures the car body and its machining plane so that the embossing depth can be determined with maximum accuracy. The car body part is then embossed accordingly and all necessary holes are punched. Embossing punching is used for the fixture of headlights, bonnets, sliding roofs, boot lids and locks as well as wings. Our embossing punching machines are suitable for single-layer steel and aluminium sheet metal. This offer includes: • Embossing punching frame (assembly elements or components can be perfectly aligned to a mating part of different dimensions) • Handling: robot-guided via defined interfaces (mechanical, electrical, pneumatic) • Servo motor-driven Tool inserts and measurement are not included in the scope of delivery. They must be chosen separately, based on the actual task. Contact us for a customised offer!

ECKOLD extrusion embossing allows for direct screwing in sheet metal and does away with press-fitted or welded nuts. The embossed structure formed in the process increases the number of turns for the screw and thus enhances its grip. In addition, extrusion embossing allows for higher torques than would be possible with simple screwing of multiple sheets. The technique is suitable for use in virtually all industries where sheet metal is machined and joined - stationary, robot-controlled or as a punch press system. This offer includes: Servo motor-driven extrusion embossing system • Embossing punching frame, horiz. throat 150 mm stationary or robot-guided • Servo motor-driven Press force approx. 58 kN Working stroke approx. 100 mm • Tool holder • Control cabinet incl. software ECKOLD VISU Embossing inserts are not included in the scope of delivery. Scrap suction/micro spray system on request. Contact us for a customised offer!

InFocus: Precise, reliable und reproducible InFocus is a high-performing TIG technology. Its precision and reliability make the InFocus welding process particularly suitable for automated applications in combination with linear axles, robots and other guiding systems. Nearly all steels, non-ferrous metals or galvanized sheets can be welded in one layer with or without filler material; e.g. CrNi-steels with a material thickness of up to 10 mm. For welding root layers of thicker sheets, the InFocus welding process offers an alternative. By using the TIG keyhole welding process, the web can be made bigger. This reduces the seam cross section and thus the number of the required layers during the subsequent submerged-arc welding. It is also not necessary to gouge the root when using the InFocus welding process for the root layer.
