3D uniform temperature plate automatic spot welding machine

1. Customer background and pain points

Because of the large size of the products and the variety of product sizes, the AVC company has fixed manual tools, so there are several

question

1. The welding workpiece is large and there are many pipes: the original craftsmanship requires a jig for each product, which is placed manually, the workpiece is large, and manual operation is difficult;

2. The need for jigs is relatively large: there is no way to accurately locate the workpiece, and it is easy to shift if it is positioned by manual hands;

2. The efficiency of going through the brazing furnace is too low, which is accompanied by potential safety hazards: each workpiece is moved back and forth, the brazing time in the furnace is long, the temperature needs to be raised, and the heat preservation and cooling time are inconvenient to operate.

The above three problems have caused headaches for customers, and they have been looking for solutions.

2. Customers have high requirements for equipment

According to the product characteristics and past experience, the customer and our sales engineer put forward the following requirements for the new customized equipment after discussion:

1. It is required to manually position the workpiece through the positioning pipe;

2. The welding process is clamped once and welded sequentially, and there will be no missing welding and offset problems.

3. The whole process is operated by one worker, and it is fast and efficient.

According to customer requirements, conventional welding machines and design ideas cannot be realized at all, what should I do?

3. According to customer needs, develop and customize 3D uniform temperature plate automatic spot welding machine

According to the various requirements put forward by customers, the company’s R&D department, welding technology department, and sales department jointly held a new project research and development meeting to discuss the technology, positioning of welding electrodes, grinding problems, list key risk points, and make one by one The solution was determined, and the basic direction and technical details were determined as follows:

1. Proofing test of the workpiece: Anjia welding technologist did the proofing test at the fastest speed, and conducted small batch verification to basically determine the welding parameters;

2. Equipment selection: First, due to the customer’s process requirements, the welding technologist and the R&D engineer will discuss and determine the selection of customized special equipment.

3. Advantages of the overall equipment:

1. High electrode compatibility: The equipment adopts the whole plate bottom electrode structure, which is compatible with workpieces of various sizes, and is equipped with positioning tubes. The utilization rate of the equipment has increased by more than 37 times.

2. Positioning function: Using the lower electrode itself as a positioning pipe, it can be positioned quickly when manually placing the workpiece, reducing labor costs and improving assembly speed.

3. XY moving welding: XY moving welding is used to weld the intermediate pipe fittings first, and then weld other parts in order to solve the problem of workpiece flatness and improve welding quality.

4. Delivery time: 50 working days.

An Jia fully discussed the above technical solutions and details with the customer, and after the two parties reached an agreement, they signed the “Technical Agreement” as the standard for equipment R&D, design, manufacturing, and acceptance, and reached an order agreement with SHXM on January 23, 2023.

4. Rapid design, on-time delivery, and professional after-sales service have won praise from customers!

After confirming the equipment technical agreement and signing the contract, Anjia’s project manager held the production project start-up meeting immediately, and determined the time nodes of mechanical design, electrical design, machining, purchased parts, assembly, joint debugging and customer’s pre-acceptance at the factory , rectification, general inspection and delivery time, and through the ERP system orderly dispatch work orders of each department, supervise and follow up the work progress of each department.

After 50 working days, the 3D uniform temperature plate automatic spot welding machine customized by AVC was finally completed. Our professional technical service personnel went through one day of installation, commissioning, technology, operation and training at the customer site, and the equipment has been put into production normally. And all have reached the customer’s acceptance criteria. The customer is very satisfied with the actual production and welding effect of the 3D uniform temperature plate automatic spot welding machine, which has helped them improve production efficiency and solve the problem of investment cost of multiple sets of metallurgical tools, and has been well received by them!

5. Meeting your customization requirements is Anjia’s growth mission!

    Customers are our mentors, what material do you need to weld? What welding process do you need? What welding requirements? Need fully automatic, semi-automatic, workstation, or assembly line? Please feel free to ask, Anjia can “develop and customize” for you.
