300th welding robot on H-Frame

Twelve years after the delivery of the first welding robot on an H- frame, Valk Welding has delivered the 300th installation this year, based on this successful concept.

With the development of a welding robot, mounted on a H frame, Valk Welding was the first robot integrator who introduced such a concept. The concept, that later also became an alternative in the form of an E- frame setup, since then has been tried to copy by multiple robot integrators, however not reaching the same performance level .

A welding robot on a fixed frame has the advantage that both welding robot, control-unit, positioners and safety fences are mounted as complete configuration and can be installed at the end user within a couple of hours. That does not only provides the advantage of a short assembly time at the customer, but also offers the possibility to move the cell at a later time and take into use again directly without correcting existing programs. After an internal move at the customer that provides a considerable cost and time saving.

The setup in a H-frame with two working stations positioned opposite to each other allows the operator to load unload and load the workpiece on one station, while the robot welds on the other station. In addition, the logistics of sub-components and welded parts can take place on both sides of the installation, which offers more freedom from a logistical point of view.

The Valk Welding H-frames are available in versions with a working length of 2,500 and 3,000 mm with a fixed robot and up to 6.000 mm with the robot on a shifter
