- Description
- In this study, an integration of point laser sensor in robotic arc welding has been performed for achieving robotic positional accuracy automatically in every welding cycle. With the help of defined focal length of laser sensor, weld seam positions as well as weld gap have been found automatically for any newly positioned work-piece. If there is any change in robot positioning compared to the master job, the shift in every axis is sent as signal to the robot controller so that robot end effector will adjust the shift amount automatically. The welding process parameters are set at optimal values. Taguchi approach so that maximum values of weld quality in terms of depth of penetration, yield strength and ultimate strength can be achieved in every welding cycle. Overall, with the proposed approach, a smart and productive way of operating industrial welding robot has been proposed which can be implemented in any medium to large scale industries for obtaining welding joints with minimum defects. 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
