摘要: A plasma torch includes a torch housing, and an anode body at least partially located within the torch housing. A cathode body extends axially within the anode body. An electrode is electrically connected to the cathode body at a distal portion of the cathode body. An electrical power terminal is attached to the cathode body at a proximal portion of the cathode body within the torch housing. An electrical isolator at least partially surrounds the cathode body within the torch housing and has a slot at the proximal portion of the cathode body that receives the electrical power terminal. A cap-in-place limit switch is attached to the electrical isolator within the torch housing.

摘要: In one embodiment, weld torch angle tools are provided to present an operator with the work angle and travel angle measured as taught in the weld point. The operator is presented with buttons to make small adjustments which the robot will move to in live updates to independently tune each angle. If the base plate is tilted, a workflow is provided to the operator to teach that tilt to the robot, allowing the measured angles and axes to be adjusted accordingly. This allows the operator to accurately dial in the exact angle measures specified for a given weld and to visually confirm the validity of the weld point as adjusted, to prevent any unexpected collision or robot reach issues.

摘要: Provided is an electric arc generation system comprising a robot, an electric arc torch attached to the robot, a power supply configured to provide an electrical power output to the torch, and a user interface for adjusting a plurality of power supply parameters. The user interface comprises a display. The system includes a processor configured to receive respective settings of the plurality of power supply parameters, and configured to analyze the settings of the plurality of power supply parameters and control the display to display a pictograph warning associated with a current parameter setting, based on a result of analyzing the settings of the plurality of power supply parameters. Said pictograph warning graphically indicates an adjustment direction for the current parameter setting. The processor is configured to automatically adjust one or more of the settings of the plurality of power supply parameters based on a predetermined operating angle of the torch.

摘要: A method of correcting angles of a welding torch positioned by a user while training a robot of a robotic welding system is provided. Weldment depth data of a weldment and a corresponding weld seam is acquired and 3D point cloud data is generated. 3D plane and intersection data is generated from the 3D point cloud data, representing the weldment and weld seam. User-placed 3D torch position and orientation data for a recorded weld point along the weld seam is imported. A torch push angle and a torch work angle are calculated for the recorded weld point, with respect to the weldment and weld seam, based on the user-placed torch position and orientation data and the 3D plane and intersection data. The torch push angle and the torch work angle are corrected for the recorded weld point based on pre-stored ideal angles for the weld seam.

摘要: A method of programming multiple weld passes in a collaborative robot welding system to perform multi-pass welding is provided. A root pass is programmed for a first weld seam by manually positioning a welding torch and automatically recording root pass position and angle data. Secondary passes for the first weld seam are also programmed. The tip of the welding torch is positioned at a start point and a stop point for each secondary pass. The start and stop position data of the start point and the stop point are automatically recorded for each secondary pass. Numerical position and angle offset data are automatically calculated. The root pass position and angle data and the offset data are stored as a multi-pass template. The template is translated and applied to a weld reference frame of a second weld seam to aid in programming secondary passes for the second weld seam.

摘要: The disclosed technology generally relates to coatings, and more particularly to metallic alloy coatings for rotors having nanocrystalline grains. In one aspect, a brake rotor comprises a disc-shaped friction area and a coating having a metallic alloy composition formed on the friction area to form a friction surface configured to contact a brake pad. The metallic alloy composition comprises Fe, Cr, B, C, Mn, Si and Mo as alloying elements that are present at concentrations exceeding impurity concentrations, and wherein the coating comprises nanocrystalline grains having an average grain size less than 100 nm.

摘要: A liner bag for, for example, a flexible intermediate bulk container (FIBC) includes a body portion formed by at least two sheets. The body portion has a first end and a second end defining a cavity therebetween. The first end has an opening for receiving a product. The liner bag also includes at least one seal (e.g., a vertical seal) joining the two sheets. The liner bag further includes at least one polymer flange secured to the two sheets and extending outward from the vertical seal to provide at least one fastening location to secure the liner bag to the container.

摘要: An embodiment includes a welding system for performing an automatic GMAW welding process. The welding system provides a welding contact tip configured to be attached to a welding tool. The contact tip is configured to accept a consumable welding wire electrode that is fed there-through during the automatic GMAW welding process to form an arc between a tip of the consumable welding wire electrode and a work piece. A secondary material, being of a different material from that of the welding contact tip, is positioned at or near a distal end of the welding contact tip. During the automatic GMAW welding process, detection of a flaring event of the arc by the welding system is facilitated by the secondary material changing phase in response to the flaring event, resulting in changing at least one detectable characteristic of the arc.

摘要: Embodiments of systems and methods of additive manufacturing are disclosed. In one embodiment, a computer control apparatus accesses multiple planned build patterns corresponding to multiple build layers of a three-dimensional (3D) part to be additively manufactured. A metal deposition apparatus deposits metal material to form at least a portion of a build layer of the 3D part. The metal material is deposited as a beaded weave pattern, based on a planned path of a planned build pattern, under control of the computer control apparatus. A weave width, a weave frequency, and a weave dwell of the beaded weave pattern may be dynamically adjusted during deposition of the beaded weave pattern. The adjustments are under control of the computer control apparatus based on the planned build pattern, as a width of the build layer varies along a length dimension of the build layer.
