Electrode force sensor for resistance welding robot Huntingdon Fusion Techniques

ADVANTAGES:

• Robot checking of Electrode Force

• No need to stop robot cells for force checking

• Very fast payback

• Alerts operators to immediate faults & variations

• Can eliminate scrap due to weld deterioration

• Reduces equipment damage and wear

• Keeps force within preset limits

• Gives early warning of equipment deterioration

• Continuous robot operation via go/no go signals


DESCRIPTION - KR1000:

Stand alone analogue output force sensor. Supplied for direct plug and play replacement to commonly existing units.


The target pads remain spatially the same. Robot reprogramming for test position is not required.


The monitor is preset to Zero on no load but can be simply adjusted by the user if required.


The innovative design of the KR1000 force head makes it far less susceptible to errors induced by electrodes not being perpendicular to the target pads.


Exacting construction standards guarantee this instrument is of greater accuracy than other monitors of this kind.


Multiple testing during construction further assist in achieving the superiority that we have set out to achieve.


When coupled to its onboard electronics package the sensor is preset for zero load & calibrated

to a known (NPL) standard.


The KR1000 is robust, durable, reliable, and accurate. KR1000’s have been installed on Car Manufacturing lines since 2005 and have been in constant use without failures.
