New Inverter Power Source For Automated Robot Welding From Wilkinson Star

This 400V 50/60Hz power source complete with water cooling unit is specifically designed for interfacing and use with most branded industrial robots. It can also be used as a stand alone unit for TIG and MMA welding. It has a 13.3 kVA @100% input power and is rated 320A @ 100% duty cycle and 360A @ 60% duty cycle with an infinitely adjustable current range between 10-360A.

It can be supplied to operate with a continuous consumable TIG (Cold Wire) wire supply using a wire power supply kit installed in the power source, plus a WF4-R3 (TIG) standard 4 roll wire feed unit and a 15kg wire spool holder, both of which are easily attached to the robot. An analogue interface suitable for all industrial welding robots is also available, enabling the user to access all the system’s TIG welding parameters.

A robot simulator is also available as an option, so that a complete test of the communications between the robot and the power source’s robotised TIG welding system software can be carried out. To monitor all the welding parameters, an analyser is also available so that data can be downloaded using a USB connection to a PC.
