Bosch Rexroth Highlights Advanced Resistance Welding Control and Analytics Portfolio
December 8, 2022Comments
At FABTECH...Bosch Rexroth presented its PRC7000 family of adaptive resistance welding controls, along with updates on the company’s ctrlX Automation platform and information on its Weld Spot Analytics solution.
The PRC7000 system features a dual-processor architecture for process control and communications, enabling high data-transfer rates, MetalForming learned during a booth tour, without affecting the welding process control. This enables automotive manufacturers and others using high-throughput automated welding systems to benefit from the highest-quality weld control and faster, more user-friendly commissioning.
We also took a look at the firm’s Weld Spot Analytics cloud-based Artificial Intelligence of Things solution for the automotive welding industry. It helps welding and quality engineers make faster, more accurate decisions about their process quality while avoiding inefficiencies. Weld Spot Analytics features:
• Machine learning-based analytics (nugget-size prediction, for example)
• Centralized data collection and dashboarding of all welding data
• Faster reaction time, thanks to its Smart Notification Engine
• A modern user interface with a role-based authorization mechanism.
