Methods of Seam Tracking

　　Seam tracking, depending on the form of sensing, is mainly divided into: contact, non-contact, and arc sensing. Contact sensors are mainly divided into mechanical and electromechanical types. The main principle is to convert the relative position changes of the weld seam into electrical signals through physical contact between the welding robot and the groove. The mechanical type uses a mechanism to contact the weld seam, using the shape of the seam as a guide. The electromechanical type uses an electrical signal received by the guide rod when there is a positional deviation between the weld seam and the center of the welding torch. Based on the size and direction of the deviation, it controls the welding robot to align the welding torch with the center of the seam. This type of sensor is simple in structure and low in cost but is prone to mechanical wear, reducing sensing accuracy over prolonged welding, which is not conducive to automated welding.


　　Laser seam tracking systems are tailor-made auxiliary software for laser welding machines, ensuring that operators do not misalign the seam during welding. What are the advantages of the ATINY laser seam tracking system?

　　Methods of Seam Tracking

　　1. Accurate Positioning

　　With the aid of the laser seam tracking system, the laser emission almost does not deviate, ensuring that the welding seam path does not shift. Seam deviation can affect the product's sturdiness and potentially cause safety hazards. The laser seam tracking system effectively prevents such issues.

　　2. Cost-Effective

　　Well-reputed laser seam tracking systems are cost-effective, so customers don't need to worry about spending too much. Reasonable pricing allows customers to allocate funds to expand their business. Additionally, the cost-effectiveness means the system is less prone to malfunction, reducing the need for maintenance.

　　3. Application Advantages

　　When cutting stainless steel, aluminum, etc, certain errors may occur, and there may also be errors during welding alignment. Combined errors can lead to imperfect welding. The seam tracking system assists in welding by intelligently adjusting, effectively improving production efficiency and welding quality.

　　The ATINY laser seam tracking system adapts to specialized systems, continuously correcting the welding torch path to ensure it remains on the correct track, thereby ensuring welding quality. The ATINY laser seam tracking system, compatible with automatic welding equipment, brings new breakthroughs to the wind turbine industry by achieving automation and unmanned operations during the welding process. This not only reduces the number of welding workers but also significantly improves welding quality and efficiency.

　　Automatically guiding the welding torch to complete welding ensures seam strength and a pleasing appearance, addressing the traditional drawbacks of low-end, labor-intensive, and difficult-to-mass-produce wind turbine manufacturing processes. By performing complex program algorithms for online real-time detection of the seam, it enables non-contact tracking, measuring seam deviation through sensors, and guiding and controlling the welding torch for precise positioning. This results in aesthetically pleasing weld seams, reliable quality, high product qualification rates, low labor intensity, and high production efficiency.
