New Special-Purpose Welding Cell
for Compressed Air Vessel Fittings
FLOREANI & PARTNERS
BUILD TO ORDER CUSTOM DESIGNED
Dimensions of the parts:
VESSELS
min. ø280mm x overall length 520mm
max.ø490mm x overall length 1500mm
FITTINGS
¼” – 3/8” / ½” – ¾” - 1” and special with non-standardized diameters
This fully-automatic Cell that we have designed and built includes a parts transportation & handling system.
The gantry type manipulator has a controlled axis + a pneumatic "Z"
The functions:
Vessel size recognition
CAD/CAM programming of cycle, according to the positions and diameters of the fittings to weld
Continuous auto.-matching of the welding torch position according to fitting diameter (: a closer position of the torch for the ¼”; ...more distance for the 1”).
As the fitting size changes, the ferrules also automatically get changed: for the joint cooling and for the weld-protection gas inlet
Automatic sense (by laser photo-cell) of the position of first hole and of the dimensions of plating; self-matching (to avoid collision with the torch) of the recorded data, if dimensions 'off-tolerances'
HMI on PC panel; storage of production-data records
Some photos show the machine when it still was under construction
Custom-built equipment needs a special kind of product support... our proposals are detailed with drawings and photos to provide clients with a full understanding of the type and quality of the equipment we offer. We send customers approval drawings with dimensions, performance specs and features before the machine is built.
We are experienced at making our products safe, reliable and in conformance with the safety and design standards. Products are designed for maximum serviceability and reliability.
Parts Books are shipped with each piece of equipment. They contain detailed information about installation, inspection and maintenance procedures, component parts.
