Welding Robot Machine For Centrifugal Fan Impeller

Introducing Altron’s centrifugal blower impeller welding robot to simplify the welding manufacturing process of centrifugal blower impellers. The quality of the centrifugal fan impeller determines the performance and energy efficiency of the industrial fan, and is a core component!

Traditional automatic welding equipment cannot track the weld in real time and correct the welding trajectory to achieve true automatic welding, so manual welding is basically used! The assembly of the impeller and the blades cannot be consistent, and the teaching programming method cannot be applied to impeller welding!

The laser vision-guided centrifugal fan impeller automatic welding robot automates the fan impeller, fan tube and other components, reduces the number of welding workers, and improves the welding quality and welding efficiency. After welding is completed, the weld strength is guaranteed to be consistent, the appearance is beautiful, and no manual grinding is required.

Description of Centrifugal Fan Impeller Welding Machine

How does a robot identify the weld location of a centrifugal fan impeller?

The automatic welding apparatus for impellers consists of several key components, including the ABB welding robot system, a two-axis transducer, a laser vision guiding system, a welding system, a gun clearing system, and a safety protection system. The laser vision system controls the welding trajectory by accurately guiding each weld seam using 3D coordinates and welding posture information. It continuously adjusts the welding trajectory to compensate for any spot welding deviations on the blades.

This equipment brings together the human-machine synergy, overcoming the issues associated with previous robot training methods and quickly identifying the weld seam for an optimal welding perspective. Real-time adjustments to the welding offset are made, ensuring the best welding results for subsequent weld seams.
