SIMULATION SLASHES WELD LINE DESIGN TIME: DESIGN TIME FOR STATIONS IN ROBOT WELDING LINES HAS BEEN CUT BY THE USE OF SIMULATION SOFTWARE
Abstract
Most of the business of Koltanbar Engineering is designing large automated welding lines producing body assemblies. In the past, designing a welding station for one of these lines was an extremely time‐consuming process requiring complicated sectional drawings at each welding point, which were stacked up to determine the gun configuration; intricate stick drawings of the robot's motion, and very tricky cycle time studies.
