Applied Kinetics welding fixtures for robotic and manual welding. (Automotive)
Summary:
Fixturing for robotic welding of automotive components.
Project: Robotic Weld Fixtures
Industry: Automotive
Stations: 5
Details:
This automotive project involved several weld stations which incorporated spatter shields, a full complement of part-in-place sensors, and extensive use of NAAMS components. Per industry standards, design work was performed in "car co-ordinates".
Robot reach studies were performed to ensure that every weld fell within the working zone of the specified multi-axis robots. All tooling design was approved by the client through a multi-step review process.
By outsourcing the design of all of the fixtures to Applied Kinetics, the client was able to keep their project under budget and on schedule.
