Cyber-Weld & FANUC gain exclusive access to smart welding camera

A new, non-contact, laser-guided, smart welding camera for robots has been launched by Cyber-Weld and FANUC, exclusively to the UK.

Known as the FUJI-CAM, the system uses adaptive welding technology to automatically adjust the welding head. This improves weld quality and reduces production costs for end-users across all automated welding applications.

The FUJI-CAM integrates seamlessly into any FANUC ARC Mate series robot to provide the following benefits:

• Precise location of a welding joint’s position, in under a second;
• Optimum positioning through constant adjustment of the welding head;
• Pressurised nozzle that protects the camera from welding spatter and fumes;
• Best performance on shiny surfaces with Optical Anti-Reflection Technology;
• Reduced number of defectives and waste through automated inspection and detection of weld joints;
• Storage of weld information for quality control and traceability;
• Friendly User Interface Technology (FRUIT™) for simple configuration and programming.
