Workpiece processing method, involves continuously moving workpiece by industrial robot, and moving tool to processing location relative to workpiece after machining operation, where tool is used as spot welding tool and mounted on platform

摘要

The method involves continuously moving a workpiece (10) by an industrial robot (16). A tool i.e. spot welding tool (18), is moved synchronously with the workpiece during execution of machining operation on a processing location of the workpiece. The tool is moved to another processing location relative to the workpiece after the machining operation. The tool is mounted on a platform (24), where the tool includes an electrode holder (20) with welding electrodes (22), and a data line (34) actuates the electrode holder of the tool.
