Weld gauge feels the force

Robotic cell weldingElectrode force in resistance welding is a crucial parameter in obtaining correct quality for both standard and critical welds in automotive manufacturing.

The new KR1000 robot cell resistance welder electrode force gauge from Huntingdon Fusion Techniques can be mounted in robot cells used by car makers and their tier-one and tier-two suppliers to allow automated checking of weld gun electrode force for obtaining optimum weld strength and equipment life.

The KR1000 force gauge head only is intended to work with robots that have Bosch welding controllers and to be a direct plug and play replacement to other electronic force gauges already in use that may be exhibiting poor reliability and lifetime. It is certified as Class III and calibrated to NPL Standards using traceable equipment with an accuracy rated as typically 0.5 per cent or less of full scale, which is 1000kg.
