Enhanced control in robotised arc welding solution

ABB has released its new robotic welding package, ArcPack, designed to offer high quality welds with minimum downtime.

The package includes ABB’s fifth generation IRC5 controller, the touch screen interface FlexPendant, RobotWare Arc programming software and an IRB1410 industrial robot to deliver an integrated solution for hassle-free arc welding.

The package is also provided with ABB’s new RPC welding power source suited for MIG (Metal Inert Gas) and MAG (Metal Active Gas) welding automation.

The new RPC welding power source offers enhanced control of welding applications enabling manufacturers to specify process parameters such as voltage, current and gas flow, managed via the ABB FlexPendant controller.

Using efficient fieldbus-based communications, the RPC power source internal digital communication speed is reportedly10 times faster than previous models.

It offers faster reaction speeds and consistently smooth and reliable wire feeding for better control in MIG and MAG welding applications.
