Fanuc welding uses multiple robot arms to weld automotive parts

Fanuc, an indus­try leader in weld­ing robot­ics, has engi­neered Fanuc weld­ing equip­ment in the auto­mo­tive indus­try for years. Not only do Fanuc welders help con­struct auto­mo­biles on a pro­duc­tion line, they also weld togeth­er sep­a­rate auto­mo­bile parts.

One Fanuc weld­ing sys­tem uses two Fanuc M‑20iAs as the posi­tion­ers while two Fanuc ARC Mate 100iC robots weld the piece. This Fanuc weld­ing sys­tem is used to weld loose brack­ets onto auto­mo­bile exhaust sys­tems. The posi­tion­ers find and pick up loose brack­ets and the Fanuc weld­ing robots weld the brack­ets into place.

These Fanuc weld­ing robots have many advan­tages. The M‑20iA’s are flex­i­ble enough to load parts onto the part assem­bly, while also posi­tion­ing and coor­di­nat­ing the weld­ing, improv­ing the qual­i­ty of the welds.

The Fanuc M‑20iA is also com­pact, with high speed through­put and 0.10mm repeata­bil­i­ty. The Fanuc ARC Mate 100iC is a high-speed weld­ing robot with an extreme­ly large work enve­lope.

The ARC Mate 100iC Fanuc weld­ing robot pro­duces high-qual­i­ty welds, while also con­duct­ing the qual­i­ty con­trol and self-inspec­tion of the parts using their vision capabilities.

The speed of this sys­tem enhances the pro­duc­tiv­i­ty of the line by decreas­ing the cycle time between prod­ucts. The Fanuc welders also increase the qual­i­ty of the welds, which improves the qual­i­ty of the product.
