Robotic system for TIG and MIG/MAG welding
The system is designed for TIG and MIG/MAG welding of parts of instrument housings, particularly Coriolis flow meters and ultrasonic liquid meters.
The system provides welding of parts made from corrosion-resistant chrome-nickel steels such as 02Х18Н11, 03Х18Н11, 03Х18Н10, 03Х18Н10Т, 12Х18Н10Т, and similar grades, where strict requirements are imposed on the weld metal. It ensures welding in all spatial positions.
