Sensing System locates weld joints without contact.
April 3, 2009 -
Robo-Find laser-based sensing system is designed to locate, detect, and measure weld joints without making contact with part. Sensing part position and dimensional variations, it signals robot and adjusts torch trajectory in less than 1 sec. System includes either Sense-i/D or SF/D laser cameras as well as miniature video camera for remote programming and viewing of welding process. Setup is accomplished via laptop interface.

Servo-Robot Develops Smart Seam Finding Solutions for Robotic Arc Welding Applications
The Robo-Find laser-based sensing system is designed to locate, detect and measure weld joints without making contact with the part.
The system detects part position and dimensional variations, then signals the robot and adjusts torch trajectory all in less than one second. Robo-Find is ideal for robotic welding applications where precise joint location and fit-up is not possible, yet optimum weld quality and productivity is required. All the standard robotic arc welding processes, including Gas Metal Arc, Flux Cored Arc, Plasma Arc and Gas Tungsten Arc are supported. This system includes one of 2 lasercameras, the Sense-i/D or SF/D. This solution is ideal not only for new installations but can also provide huge improvements when retrofitted to existing equipment.
Setup is done with a simple laptop interface - there is no separate controller because everything is in the camera itself. Robo-Find has a miniature video camera inside that is very useful for remote programming and viewing of the welding process.
The Servo-Robot family of products includes systems for seam tracking, seam finding, weld inspection and laser welding modules. With more than 25 years serving the robotic and welding industries, Servo-Robot has developed laser sensing systems that bring intelligence to processes worldwide.
