Specialty Robot Cells

Robotic painting booths and robotic welding cells are one of the most popular and widely used applications of robotics. The robotic painting system and robotic welding system increases quality and consistency which results in the increase in productivity and profit. 


Robotic Painting System

KEY FEATURES:

  • ABB Robot
  • Integrated bake oven
  • Custom spray booth with dry medium air filtration
  • Temperature controlled paint booth to maintain consistent paint environment all year round
  • Integrated automatic indexing system
  • Notification light tower and alarm to notify operator of cell status and material outages.
  • Operator interface through HMI
  • System safety interlocked and guarded as per Australian and New Zealand Standards

The Mexx Engineering® Robotic Painting System is capable of increasing finishing quality whilst delivering higher production speeds and productivity. It is easy to install and program, and the robots deliver the same high-quality finish time after time without issues such as operators becoming tired or repetitive motion injuries. 




 


Robotic Welding System

KEY FEATURES:

  • Rotary axis coordinated with welding robot
  • System contains dedicated in feed table or cut pipe from 1m-3m
  • Notification light tower and alarm to notify operator of cell status and material outages.
  • Operator interface through Robot Teach Pendant.
  • System safety interlocked and guarded as per Australian and New Zealand Standards
  • System contains fixed part loading locations for each of the parts to be welded
  • Dedicated trolley with automatic locating points for finished products

The MexxWeld, welding cell system is movable by forklift via it’s integrated folk tines. Once in place and connected it is ready to start operating, this is within minutes of delivery.  The MexxWeld has fully enclosed work areas, which ensures safety. The internal weld curtains ensure operators are protected from weld arc on the 2nd bay. The doors are opened automatically ensuring maximum production output. The robot is always welding at a high production rate.

MexxWeld – FX/FX and RD/FX

Mexx Engineering® developed a series of standard welding cells (MexxWeld) which have several variants of fixed and rotary tables with various configurations of:

  • RK/RDK - Rotary Table (1200mm x 1800mm to 1400mm x 4000mm)
  • FX – Large Fixed Table (2100mm x 900mm) and
  • RD – Rotary Table (1800mm x 700mm)

We can also design, build and install single and multi-robotic systems, other than welding cells and automated systems – resulting in an automated system with special purpose machines and robotic cells.

 

Applications of robotic welding cells

  • Construction
  • Steel pipes
  • Car manufacturing
  • Arc welding
  • Industrial welding
  • Plasma arc welding
  • MIG (metal/inert gas) welding
  • TIC (tungsten inert gas) welding

Robotic Welding Cell (FX-RD)
