The Yaskawa Northern Technology Centre represents an investment in excess of £250K and will enable the robot and motion control expert to showcase solutions for welding, cutting and palletising applications.
The new centre will feature the latest robotic arc- and spot-welding applications using the full range of Yaskawa Motoman robots, positioners, power sources, weld controls and turnkey solution cell systems. Yaskawa’s customers will be able to benefit from demonstrations and trials on Yaskawa’s products, as well as customer product training for online and offline programming.
Yaskawa Motoman’s ArcWorld robotic welding systems are pre-engineered, pre-assembled and shipped ready to weld. ArcWorlds can be configured with multiple robots, a heavy duty positioner or servo-controlled external axes for coordinated motion control.
SpotWorld is a complete work cell with robot, process equipment, part positioner and safeguarding package that leverages Yaskawa Motoman’s MS-series robots and welding positioners to pattern work cells. This, combined with Yaskawa’s ArcWorld product line and servo-controlled spot guns with direct current (DC) spot timers, ensures optimum synchronisation and improved quality and reduced cycle times.
