Concept of the Model Robotized Cell for Plasma-GMAW Hybrid Welding

Article Preview

Abstract:

Activities in the field of increasing the productivity of the production lines for welding thick metal sheets are focused in two directions. On the one hand, new technologies are being developed for welding, deeper weld penetration and faster welding process. On the other hand are focused on automation of these operations, which have the effect of reducing cost and increasing efficiency. Improved are also the working conditions of people employed in the welding processes. In both these directions the hybrid welding Plasma-GMAW could fulfill all requirements as a new technology. The article gives the concept model of the complete robotized welding cell, in which this method will be implemented and tested.
