KS RoboScan

   
Greater Distance for better results
KS RoboScan
The concept of RoboScan stands not only for the new KUKA remote laser welding head, but also for the fact that it is guided and controlled by a robot. With this remote laser system, the laser beam is guided to the welding point with a working distance of up to 1500 mm, which enables extremely short repositioning times between laser joints. Small reorientations of the optics result in large, fast motions of the operating point. With a variable focal length of 270 mm to 1500 mm, RoboScan is unique on the laser market, offering maximum flexibility in the 3D processing of components. The focus diameter and angle of divergence remain constant over the entire adjustment range, guaranteeing optimal process reliability. The focal length adjustment is integrated into the controller as an external robot axis.

Cost-effectiveness

Large working distance enables:

  • high output due to short repositioning motions
  • low operating costs due to reduced fouling

Flexibility

  • 3D work envelope for optimal orientation on the work
  • Adaptable to all common laser sources
  • Any orientation of the head possible during welding

User-Friendliness

  • simple teaching
  • simple programming with inline forms
  • integrated, intuitive, menü-guided operator control

Capital costs

  • low capital costs
  • simple, cost-effective system integration into the robot controller

Reliable solutions

  • concept and implementation from a single source
  • integrated solutions from the design phase through to series application
One Laser welding head. Two variants. Four connection options
  1. Simple teaching with two integrated program pointers which cross at the focus

  2. User-friendly cover slide drawer and cover slide monitoring

  3. Plug & Play distance sensor for direct transfer of distance inromation to the robot program
  4. Cross jet / cone jet function for the avoidance of nugget fouling and plasma in the weld pool
