SERVO-ROBOT has introduced new sensing and control technologies for Spiral Pipe fabrication. The infrastructure in many countries is aging and urgently needs to be replaced, thus creating a large demand for high quality transmission pipe. How can companies increase production while improving quality at the same time? The answer is to add SERVO-ROBOT laser vision seam tracking and control systems to existing spiral pipe welding systems.
The following list of applications in spiral pipe mills can benefit from the use of laser vision sensing systems:
- Seam Tracking of Internal and External Weld Joints
- Measure & Control Skelp/Plate Width
- Sense and Adjust for Gap & Mismatch on Inside Weld
- Measure Outside Diameter & Roundness
- Automatic Visual Weld Inspection
- Tracking for Ultrasonic Inspection of the Finished Weld
- Tracking of Coil End Splice Weld
- Measure Land & Angle on Pipe End Preparation
