Air cooled Tough Gun welding torch system: Long durability increases system availability


1. More important uses in short
  • Extremely high durability saves direct torch costs and indirect expenses for maintenance and service
  • Cost-saving air cooling up to 300 A, also works under greater pressure according to on-time
  • Stable construction and high fitting accuracy result in exactly reproducible TCP adjustment
2. A brief look at some special features and advantages
  • Torch neck quick changing system makes it easy to replace the torch within seconds
  • The torch neck can be taken out and a new one installed by simply loosening the plugs
  • The torch neck fits exactly into the changer without it being necessary to take the entire torch out of the support
  • Exact positioning of the Tool Center Point (TCP) in the gauge by means of vernier adjustment on the torch neck
  • Large copper transverse section and wear-resistant rubber sheathing produce a sturdy, highly flexible "unicable" coaxial cable
  • Interior pipe in the coaxial cable system serves as a flexible tube for the wire spool and prevents it from breaking
  • Special torch disconnection with compressed air buffer between torches and robots protects the entire system in crash situations
  • Dodging characteristic can be variably adjusted via pressure in the compensation capsule
  • Fine adjustment of the torch for the adjustment of manufacturing tolerances
  • Disposal of pollutants and all component disadvantages due to water cooling are omitted
3. Technical Characteristics Overview
  • TOUGH GUN torch system consists of torch disconnection, support, unicable and gooseneck
  • Torch disconnection with 1° deflection of the welding torch end; permissible evasive movements of 20° from the central axis and 360° in a circle around it
  • Return after disconnection with tolerance of maximum 0.03 mm to the original position
