Our
latest addition to the igm product line is the ModulARC series
featuring igm's revolutionary new P2W technology.
These Pre-engineered welding robot cells are available in four
models: TT-250, RP-250, RWM-250, and FW-250. These competitively
priced systems are designed & built with ease of use in mind.
All ModulARC systems
are mounted on a common base for ease of installation, as well
as making the entire system mobile for future facility “workflow” adjustments.
igm's small
systems, much like the ModulARC,
are designed to handle small to medium size weldments. Our "standard" small
systems however are not palletized, although this option
is available. They are designed and assembled as individual
components and may utilize higher capacity part manipulators
than those of the ModulARC series.
igm's medium
systems may
be the most popular of all our turnkey systems. These systems,
due to their extended work envelope and positioner payload
capacity, are probably the most flexible and versatile
of all igm systems. These systems usually combine
one of our robot models with a servo controlled rotary
gallows, and may include a servo controlled linear floor
track or overhead slide. The rotary gallows range in length
from 59" to 98", while the floor tracks
and slides start at almost 10ft. long, and go to over 65ft. The
part manipulators available range from simple, single axis
headstocks to multi-axis L-Arms (skyhooks) and tilt/rotate
positioners. Payload capacity ranges from 330 lbs.
to over 50,000 lbs.
Our large
systems are customarily utilized in industries
such as Earthmoving/Construction, Railroad, and Shipbuilding.
These systems can incorporate multiple robots, servo slide
systems, and enormous floor-mounted gantries. These massive
systems may include up to 16 synchronized servo axes (per
robot), all programmed and operated through a single user-friendly
teach pendant. igm not only accepts the challenges associated
with designing and implementing systems of this size, but
does so with great enthusiasm!
igm's cutting & beveling
systems are the best that the industry has
to offer. Our "ibs" beveling system comes as either
gantry or slide systems, with a specially developed cutting
head allowing bevelling of arbitrary contours with varying
angles. A constant land height is guaranteed by a Laser sensor
performing on-line surface measurement and edge tracking,
even compensating for heat distortion. Off-line programming
using CAD data is done via an integrated DNC-interface. The
ibs is not only capable of top and bottom bevels (without
rotating the plate), but will achieve these bevels with an
accuracy of ± 0.5mm!
With
the release of our new off-line programming package ips, "Off-Line
Teaching" has never been so easy. igm's Programming Studio
utilizes the actual K5 teach pendant to do all off-line functions!
The K5 teach pendant plugs directly into your PC through an interface
plug provided with the system. Every robot function existing
on-line is available off-line, everything. Not only are
all robot functions available, but they are executed at actual
speeds, making it an invaluable tool for cycle time and robot
path analysis. Furthermore, since the off-line/on-line programming
methods are identical there is no need for expensive training,
if you can program the robot on-line, you can program it off-line,
period!
