Hi guys,
Is only for curiosity. I see in a few videos that the welding robot touch the parts in diferent points with the TCP.
What is this? All robots can make this?

Thanks
yes, all advance robot cann do this ( motoman, abb, fanuc kuka....) is only a welding aplication.
Thanks rzapo,
What ends have this technique,? It is for detect where is the material and modify automatically the robtarget or only use it to check if the part is in correct position?
Where can I seach more information? ABB weld manual?
Thanks
"Searching" as it is called can be used for many things. Typically it is used to find the exact position of the part to be welded to automatically shift the robtargets to the found position. You can also search weld joints (typically groove joints) to automatically change the weld parameters to properly weld the joint. It can also be used as a quality check to ensure the parts are positioned correctly, which, depending on what you want to do with that info, you can do a variety of things (ie. skip the welds if not in tolerance, log the position coordinates to a file, etc). Lastly, it can be used for part detection, to see if the part is even there.
ABB's searching capabilities is called SmartTac. I've attached the IRC5 SmartTac manual so you can read about it some more
Thanks a lot!!!!!!
Now I see it more clear. I think we have not the smartac module.
Thanks a lot again
It is possible using simple laser type sensor .... once you get grooves position value... you can offset the frames and weld it....
