Body Shop – Automotive Welding Tip Inspection
Quality inspections with high-resolution R55F sensors yield better welding results
In automated welding aplications, it's important to maintain the overall quality of the welders to check for worn, improperly milled or missing welding caps. If a welding tip fails inspection, a maintenance signal is sent to the process controller, and the welding operation halts.
The R55F high color resolution sensor checks whether the tips on a welder are within specifications, so the part being manufactured also is within specifications. In this harsh environment, the color contrast sensor uses glass fibers for enhanced durability and heat resistance.
Your Benefits
- Accurate measurement eliminates waste
