The invention serves to weld plastic parts for the automotive industry.
Claims12
An industrial welding system with a work table comprising at least one tool holder for securing workpieces to be welded wherein the tool holder is mounted on a pivotal mount that is rotatable about an axis that is parallel to a support face of the work table.
(canceled)
An industrial welding system comprising:
- at least one fixedly mounted welding robot defining a welding station;
- a tool support pivotal about a fixed upright axis offset from the robot and having at least two ends similarly radially spaced from the axis and shiftable on pivoting of the support past the station;
- respective mounts pivotal on the ends about respective horizontal axes and each having a pair of opposite faces;
- means for securing respective workpieces to the faces;
- and
- control means connected to the support and mounts for orbiting the mounts past the station with one of the workpieces on one of the mounts oriented for work by the robot, and for pivoting the one mount about its horizontal axis for positioning the other workpiece of the one mount for work by the robot.
