iBox Controller
iBox: Powerful Process Controller Driving Servo Weld gun
For electric guns and machines, the iBox centralises all resistance welding parameters for programming and supervision into one process controller (time, current , force, position).
- With the iBox, any 6-axis robot (handling, refurbished etc.) can manage an Servo Weld Gun without significant modifications to its application.
- Delimited responsibilities between the robot and the welder.
Force Control and Profiles
Thanks to its force sensor management capability, the iBox provides advanced functions improving the welding process and quality.
The ability to synchronize force profiles to welding current cylces offer large possibility to provide the most robust welds on all type of materials .
It is the best choice for Aluminium welding, but also for other materials.
High welding quality
- Management of force tips: controlled
- Management of tips position: indentation / expansion
- Management of force profiles (for Aluminium welding, steel complex configurations )
- Gap compensation
Fast, simple and safety installation
- In a solution package the iBox is delivered with cables and weld gun or machine and ready to run and calibrated
- No axis drive is required from the robot : It can be associated to any 6 or 7 axis robot
- The iBox can be driven by a robot or a PLC
- Duty cycle monitoring of the welding gun servo actuator, transformer and transformer diodes
iBox Features
- Force steps with force control and monitoring
- Fast and simple (about 30s with the automatic mode)
- Detection of the evolution of the position during the welding (indentation / expansion)
- During the “initialization” cycle, the electrode wear is precisely measured
- During the “initialization complete” cycle, the max opening of the gun is detected
- Dressing test cycle
