Seats & Instrument Panels

Manufacturing automotive seats and instrument panels requires balancing high-volume production with thin material and gap welding. Each component has an average of 35 welds but a weld length of just 25 mm on material that might only be 1 mm thick. In this environment, weld program routines such as SureStart™ can ensure proper weld bead profile and weld integrity through positive arc starts. In fact, it set a world record 73,993 arc starts without failure. For especially thin parts or joint designs that offer little mass to absorb excess heat, RMD™ —a cooler process than short circuit MIG—can prevent burn-through and may eliminate rework. For welding around restraints, critical anchor points and brackets, Accu-Pulse™ can ensure good penetration without excess heat. The Axcess digital power source (Auto Axcess or semi-automatic Axcess) enables you to change welding processes on the fly, giving you flexibility to use multiple processes on a single part. To improve productivity in the immediate future, Axcess easily and quickly connects existing digital or analog robot through its Auto-Cal feature.
