ESAB Cobot offers intuitive operation, fast deployment, suitability for high-mix and low-to medium-volume applications and the confidence of an ESAB welding system and a Universal Robots arm.
North Bethesda, Md. – ESAB now offers a second ESAB Cobot (collaborative robot) option for MIG and pulsed MIG welding applications on steel, stainless steel and aluminum alloys. The new 5- x 10-ft table with UR20 (Universal Robots) robot arm provides 35 percent more reach and a 67 percent higher payload to accommodate larger parts. The new system uses the same software app that runs on a standard smartphone or tablet (Apple iOS or Android) and “Smart Puck” to hand-guide the torch and record its position with the push of a button as ESAB’s original Cobot (32- x 48-in table and UR 10e robot arm). Unlike the complex programming pendants of other cobots, the ESAB Cobots, enable operators to create a weld sequence as simply as they can create a song playlist.
The ESAB Cobots feature a Universal Robots UR20 or UR10e industrial robot arm. UR is the automation industry’s leading provider of cobots and has an installed base of more than 75,000 cobots. Welding components include ESAB’s Aristo® 500ix pulse power source, the RobustFeed U82 wire feeder, an air- or water-cooled torch and accessories. The ESAB Cobot costs a fraction of a pre-engineered robot cell, does not require a programmer, ships quickly and deploys in hours.
"This new, larger table and extended robot arm is a game-changer for our first customer," says Dan Colvin, ESAB Vice President, North America Robotics & Digital Solutions. “Because the ESAB Cobot boosted their capabilities, this customer is accepting orders for now and already into mid-next year from their key account. With a larger table, fabricators can solve production issues for their larger parts.”
A Siegmund 5- x 10-ft or 32- x 48-in. welding table organizes components and enables moving the cobot around a shop. The entire package ships on a pallet typically within two to three weeks of ordering from a distributor. Set up takes a few hours following step-by-step instructions accessed with a QR code. If a user has the skills to set up an industrial MIG system, they have the skills to start automated welding with the ESAB Cobot.
The cloud-connected ESAB software app offers free and fast in-app support from a team of experts that responds to inquiries in two minutes or less, as well as access to knowledge articles and an extensive list of tutorials. The app automatically stores weld sequences, enabling them to be recalled even if they are deleted from a device. Users can add charts to track production data and consumables use, as well as share part programs between cobots.
The software app’s basic plan is free. A “pro plan” extends chart visibility from seven to 30 days and enables users to export chart data. It also enables additional features, such as requiring a password login and attaching photos and files to a part (such as photos showing part location on the table or a PDF of welding procedures).
“When I first saw the ESAB Cobot, it was exactly what I had envisioned. It actually lived up to the advertisement hype about how easy it was to program — we had guys in the sales demo writing programs on it in the first 40 minutes,” says Brett Skyvington, president and robot programmer of Skyvington Manufacturing Inc.
