LHZ Heavy Duty Fixed Base Column Electric Revolve Welding Manipulator

1.  The Outline on Characteristic and Application of Stationary Motor Drive Revolve Heavy duty Welding Column and Boom:

1) Fixed Base: The attached master photo was taken on 2 sets of Wuxi JACK LHZ5050 model fixed base heavy duty Welding Manipulator. As can be seen from the photo, base bed of these Manipulator Welding Machine are secured firmly onto workshop floor;

2) Climbing Ladder: For convenience of operating this big size Welding Column Boom, there is walking passage along the whole length of horizonal boom, and climbing ladder along upright column of the large size welding equipment;

3) In the previous product section of “Manual Revolve Stationary Heavy duty model”, we discussed matters concerned with design and production of heavy duty Manipulator Welding Machine. In this product we will go on to discuss on its operation.

2. Strong Points of User Friendly Operation in Heavy duty Manipulator Welding Machine for Tank Welding:

Same as design, with the increasement of tonnage and dimension of the welding machine tool, operation of these big size Welding Column and Boom also poses great challenge on its operation and maintenance, which should be sufficiently safe and convenient. For this reason, we take special care for customers, on easy and convenient operation on these fully engaged widely applied welding equipment:

1) Air Passageway along the entire Length of Horizontal Boom in Heavy duty Welding Column and Boom:

As shown in below picture:  (Fig.1)

A passage of walking way is installed alongside the horizontal boom. Operators and other working staff can walk on it for doing job on this large welding machinery;

2) Staircase and Overhead Platform in Manipulator Welding Machine:

As shown in below picture:  (Fig.2)

a) An overhead platform is fit at the top of the upright column, for acquiring on easy maintenance and service on these large size Welding Column and Boom;

b) A staircase for climbing onto the overhead platform is secured alongside the upright column, surrounded with protecting enclosure;

3) Reduce Total Height of Large Welding Manipulator:

a) For heavy duty large models of the equipment, to lower down the total height of the Manipulator Welding Machine, this can fulfil more safety and stability of its working process. For this reason, we keep the minimum height of the Welding Manipulator as much as possible. Please check below picture:  

LHZ6060 model being erected at Wuxi JACK assembly workshop: (Fig.3)

b) Conceivably, for Heavy duty Welding Column and Boom, its total height should be tried to being kept as minimum. For this purpose, we put the column elevating motor inside the bottom fixed base of the equipment, instead of installed onto top of the upright column;

c) This also makes maintenance and service job on the equipment safe and convenient;

4) Operator Chair in Heavy duty Welding Column and Boom:

Please check the above picture again:

a) From the perspective of meeting ergonomics requirement and lessening labor intensity, operator can operate this Manipulator Welding Machine in the position of sitting, instead of standing;

b) When preparing chair for operator, need to fully consider ample allowance for accommodating average height and weight of local people, especially for western customers who usually have higher height, where the heavy duty model is put into use;

5) Operation on Automatic Welding Manipulator:

a) Operating Panel and Pendant: Considering the large overall dimensions of heavy duty models equipment, switches/ pushbuttons /knobs should be deployed at both operating panel and remote control pendant;

b) Due to series of outsourcing components used in this Tank Welding Machine, including Welding power source/ Seam tracing unit/ Wire feeder/ Flux recovery unit, as well as interlock with other welding equipment, such as Welding Positioner and Welding Rotator Roller Bed, integration of these units and equipment into an integral entity Welding Center is of vital importance. It is custom made welding machine group in each of the application;

c) Emergency STOP button is deployed close at hand for operators, in case contingency happens, and the welding equipment can be switched off immediately.
