APPLICATION-SPECIFIC INTEGRATION

Robotic applications
in production.

We assess the process, required cycle time and material flow. We configure individual robotic cells or integrated installations to meet the application requirements.

04ENGINEERING APPROACH
APPLICATION → SYSTEM → VALIDATION

Engineering criteria
for system configuration.

Robot selection is one part of the study. Performance comes from the combination of process, mechanical layout and production flow.

ENGINEERING / 01

Workpiece & process

Material, thickness, joint geometry, assembly tolerances and target quality define the starting point for engineering.

ENGINEERING / 02

Reach & fixturing

We assess torch access, part positioning and motion space, selecting a table, positioner or linear axis for the application.

ENGINEERING / 03

Cycle & production flow

The total cycle includes loading, travel, processing and unloading. Palletizing also requires gripper, pattern and pallet-exchange assessment.

ENGINEERING / 04

Controls & handover

Electrical design, equipment interfaces, functional checks, training and technical support complete the installation.

05TALOS ROBOT VISION
LASER TRIANGULATION / REAL-TIME CORRECTION

Seam tracking.
Robot path correction.

TALOS.EasyPath

Using laser triangulation, EasyPath measures seam position, gap and orientation. The vision controller processes the geometry and transmits corrections to the robot controller during welding.
