Air-Cooled Robotic-Welding Torches
Abicor Binzel debuted its Abirob Cyclone for air-cooled robotic-welding applications. The offering enables opti- mal current transfer to the torch with-
folds and exhaust pipes, and the com- pany’s full-electric and multi-stack CNC tube-bending machines allow for a range of different tube and profile dimensions to be bent. Users benefit from short cycle times, high speeds and high accuracy, according to com- pany officials. In combination with individually adjustable tools, multi- level technology reportedly enables problem-free and accurate shaping of
tubes even with short lengths between individual bends. The CNC 100 E TB MR can be used to bend exhaust pipes with a bending radius of only one times the pipe diameter. Its integrated rapid- clamping system, Quick Tool Unlock, allows rapid changing of bending tools. This helps optimize setup time and reduces machine downtime.

The modular design enables easy assembly/disassembly and mainte- nance. In addition, the company stress- es that the Cyclone technology, when used with robotic-welding cells, will result in less wasted motion, higher production and reduced part cost. Abicor Binzel: www.binzel-abicor.com
