Applications
Year 2003, ABB genuine Flex arc welding, 9 axis cell consisting of:
- 1 x IRB1400 M2000 six axis robot with S4CPlus controller, 1,5 m arm reach and 6 kg payload.
- 2 x IRBP 250L welding positioner, 250 kg payload and and 2 m between head and tailstock. Maximum fixture radius: 800 mm
- 1 x Kemppi synergic arc welding power source (400 Amperes power) with wire feeder and anticollision
- 1 x automatic torch cleaning station
- 1 x safety light barriers system and external operation panel
All components fully integrated and operational. Arc welding software included. All welding parameters controlled through the ABB teach pendant robot control system.
ABB S4CPlus controler features:
S4Cplus gives you superior motion control. It features dynamic model based control, QuickMove for short cycle times, and the TrueMove function for high precision path following ability independent of robot speed.
The S4Cplus system configuration capability and the powerful programming language RAPID make it easy to set up the controller for a wide range of applications.
Two built-in Ethernet channels provide easier service and factory networking.
There are field bus and serial channels for PLC and PC connections.
The controller supports TCP/IP, DNS and other protocols. A dedicated robot protocol, RAP, is available for control and monitoring.
