The TruLaser Robot 5020 supports laser welding, laser cutting and component coating by laser deposition welding from a single production system by changing optics.
 The TruLaser Robot 5020 is a standardised, modular robot cell whose elements can be specified to suit the precise needs of the manufacturer. In addition to the laser, optic and robot, the system comes complete with positioning equipment and safety enclosure.
It is the only robot cell to have a magnet coupling that enables users to easily replace the processing optics when switching processes. The automatic adjustment of the focus position of the processing optic is another novel feature. This makes it possible to switch between deep welding and heat conduction welding in one processing cycle.
The integrated welding wire feed also expands the welding options, while another valuable addition is the new zero-point clamping system that ensures components are positioned with repeated precision. And the option to programme the process offline allows the operator to work on one order while programming the next and feed it straight into the robot system.
The robot's laser beam is routed to the processing optic on the robotic arm by means of a flexible fibre optic cable. This means that the system can be upgraded at any time to incorporate additional machines with the laser either being switched or time-shared between machines. It also means that machine capacity can be doubled for less than half the cost of an additional complete system.
