Cup to Weld Machine

Welding is a process where two materials are fused together through heating, intermixing, and then cooling the materials and/or a filler to form a strong join. From arc welding to spot welding, welding machines are typically used in welding processes where the weld required is repetitive and quality and speed are crucial.  

LUOVA has provided field instrumentation and Automation Control System of Cup to weld Machine to various customers.

Introduction

Automatic Cup to welding machine is used to multiple cup weld on a circular pipe without making any joint between them. It provides high production rate and accuracy to product compared to manual welding process. A highly accurate automation system comprises of PLC, HMI, Servo system and various field sensors.


Detail description

Cup to welding machine welds 6 number of cup on Pipe. A Servo motor is used for rotation of pipe. Six nos. of welding guns are equipped with pneumatic valve for up and down movement around the pipe.

User can feed in various parameters like circumference of cup, weld length and blank length through HMI screen. Machine can save these parameters in recipe which can be called again in future for multiple jobs. Once parameters are added, the recipe is loaded and machine can run in Auto mode to execute welds. Operator can also set delay time between weld operations in recipe.
