Do you know about these three wire feedders for welding robots?

The introduction of welding robots has not only brought great convenience to the welding process for users, but has also improved welding efficiency and ensured the safety of welders. In this article, we will discuss three types of wire feeding systems used in welding robots, as well as a company in China called Changsha Pengju Robotics that specializes in used robots. Let's delve into the details.

There are three different methods for wire feeding in used welding robots. The first method is the pull type, where the wire tray is separated from the welding gun and connected through a wire feeding hose. The second method is to directly mount the wire tray onto the torch. Both of these methods are suitable for semi-automatic fusion electrode gas shielded welding with a wire diameter of 0.8 mm or less, providing a more stable wire feed.

The third method is the push wire type, which is relatively simple in structure, lightweight, and easy to operate and maintain. However, it has a higher resistance to wire feed and the wire feed stability decreases as the length of the wire feeding hose increases. Therefore, this method is typically used for semi-automatic melting gas shielded welding with a wire diameter of 2.0 mm and a wire feeding hose length of 5m.

Another method is the push-pull wire feeding method, which is also commonly used in welding robot wire feeding systems. This method utilizes both a wire pusher and a wire puller, with the wire pusher being the main power source and the wire puller straightening the wire. Although the wire feeding hose can be extended up to 10m, this method is not widely used in practice due to its complex structure.

Since wire feeding is a crucial aspect of the welding process, it should be handled properly. When designing a welding robot, it is important to consider the wire feeding system to ensure it meets the specific welding requirements.
