TH6D – Guiding the way to a perfect welding seam. The in-process optical seam tracking with TH6D paves the way towards a perfect welding seam: Components and joints are recorded using a combination of laser lines and camera, allowing the course of the welding seam to be corrected in real time. Contact free and independent of both system and process, the method is suitable for all standard seam shapes and types of material. Universal, precise & insensitive! Find out more!

TH6D – The guide to perfect welding seams. Universal, precise & insensitive ... Follow me! High-performance signal evaluation in real time! Projection of a triple laser line onto the component Top-level jointing technology. The only way to do justice to increasing product requirements, continue to work eciently and remain competitive is to use state-of-the-art production systems. New developments and perfectly coordinated system solutions – like the optical seam tracking sensor TH6D and the comprehensive ABICOR BINZEL product range – contribute towards improving automated processes....

Particularly suitable for reflective surfaces such as aluminium and stainless steel Advantages that speak for themselves: Universal ■■ Suitable for all standard seam shapes ■■ Suitable for all standard surfaces, particularly reflective and high-gloss ones such as aluminium or stainless steel ■■ Interfaces to well-known robot controls available Precise ■■ Exact identification of the seam and determination of the alignment of the sensor head to the seam thanks to the use of the three-line laser ■■ Above-average process reliability even with demanding seam tracking ■■ High measuring data...

Follow me! The Functional Principle. How does optical seam tracking work? Application: The optical seam tracking sensor TH6D is used for the contact free recording and measurement of components as well as the precise positioning and tracking of the tool – in real time. How it works: A light pattern comprising three parallel laser lines is projected onto the component surface according to the principle of laser triangulation. At the same time, the seam shape at the joint is scanned by a digital camera. The laser lines are interrupted at the joint due to the inclined projection of approx. 20°...

Navigation ... The System Overview. Optical seem tracking sensor TH6D Protective plate with cross-jet function Cable assembly Robot Three-line laser Setting possibilities Robot mount (here: iCAT) Torch neck (here: ABIROB® A500) The optical seam tracking sensor TH6D is available in two different versions. These differ in resolution and measuring range and can thus be used both for thin-sheet and thick-sheet applications. In combination with the sensor mount, the sensor is available for both iCAT and iSTM robot mounts, and thus for the welding torches of the series ROBO WH, ABIROB® A, ABIROB®...
