Choosing the right robotic welding power source for your welding application can be confusing. There are not only many companies out there to choose from, but also several different models to decide between. Having the right power source for your robotic welding application is the key to a seamless integration of a welding robot. Before making a decision, you should first of all determine, document and analyze which welding operations you will use. This will determine what kind of welding will be matched to your power source. After that, the thickness of the material and the complexity of the part also have to be considered. By determining these parameters, you are indirectly determining the duty cycle required for this operation. You also need to consider other communication and electrical parameters and, of course, the physical dimensions of the power source. This analysis will be key to choosing the right power source for your robotic application in an industrial automation context. Here are the details of what you need to define to choose the right power source for your robotic welding application.
