Flexible 3D laser cutting/welding robot launched

A flexible, modular robot system for 3D laser processing offers high productivity and availability thanks to short programming times and guarantees a uniformly high workpiece quality.

For the first time Trumpf presented itself at euroblech as the manufacturer of a robot welding cell, the TruLaser Robot 5020. From the laser beam source to the safety enclosure, from the peripherals to the integration expertise - all the required know-how has been brought together in one spot. Only the standard robot continues to be an outside product.

It comes from KUKA.

The complete solution TruLaser Robot 5020 from Trumpf is a flexible robot solution for 3D processing.

The TruLaser Robot 5020 distinguishes itself with high productivity and availability thanks to short programming times.

In addition, the robot solution guarantees a uniformly high quality in the workpieces.

Its modular, standardized design allows the TruLaser Robot 5020 to be individually expanded or delivered ready for operation according to the user's requirements.

At EuroBLECH, Trumpf offered several innovations for the TruLaser Robot 5020.

Functionalities such as electrical cabinet, cable channels, suction lines, lighting and safety devices are integrated into the new, cost-optimized safety enclosure.

It is easy to connect several enclosures.

More sophisticated welding optics with minimized interference contour or a new collision protection using a magnetic coupler embody the innovations specifically, like the optimized shielding gas supply.

An observation camera with crosshairs is also available for moving in the workpieces.

The automatic adjustment of the focussing orientation is a special feature: It is now possible for the first time to switch between deep welding and thermal conduction welding in a single processing cycle.
