Dual-Robot Coordinated Welding Cell for Excavator Booms

Factory production cell using coordinated dual-robot welding for excavator boom structures.

This is an in-production AGR Group factory application.

Dual-Robot Coordinated Welding Cell for Excavator Booms

Workpiece

Hydraulic-excavator boom.

Production Challenge

2 robots had to execute coordinated welding reliably within a shared working envelope.

AGR Solution

The workstation uses coordinated motion between 2 arc-welding robots, a welding-parameter library, and bus communication between the robots and welding power sources.

System Configuration

2 arc-welding robots, coordinated motion, welding-parameter library, robot/power-source bus communication, and coordinated control in a shared working area.

Implementation

Applied in production at an AGR Group structural-parts factory.

Case Results

2-robot coordinated welding is operated in the factory.

Application Conditions

Similar boom-welding applications can be assessed.

Engineering Highlights

  • Coordinated motion between 2 robots
  • Welding-parameter library
  • Bus communication between robot and welding power source
  • Coordinated operation in a shared working area
