The resonator welding machine welds together two deep-drawn parts made from stainless steel. An operator inserts both halves into insertion cavities, which are located on a turning device. This means the next device can be equipped during the welding process.
After clamping the component, the position of the weld seam is detected by a camera and the robot can be precisely positioned. Due to the low heat input during Plasmatron welding, the internal plastic parts are not damaged.
At two additional manual workstations, the internal plastic components were initially inserted as part of an upstream process and compression moulded at a monitored force.
After welding, a QR code is lasered onto the parts in order to guarantee traceability.
