CoWelder is an efficient and easy-to-use welding robot for all tasks

There is no longer any financial, logical or social argument not to invest in a welding automation solution such as CoWelder, if you have a serial production.

That is why we have expanded our CoWelder solution with and Extended option – and we introduce https://cowelder.com to provide a deeper experience around this exciting product, as well as a product configurator.

Automated welding using robot cells increases the arc time per workday and secures uniform high-quality welds - but in smaller scale productions, there is also a need for some wiggle room and ingenuity. And we need to protect welders from repeated work that is the cause of ergonomic injuries. That is why we see easy programming and flexibility as an important feature in the solutions we develop for automated welding. With Miga Smart Tool, programming our CoWelder is fast and intuitive. It opens the application possibilities in the welding workflow and each unit we deliver creates unique value to the customer.

Intelligent Current Control (ICC) from Migatronic – for narrow gap welding

The MIG/MAG function Intelligent Current Control (ICC) makes any welder able to weld with varying stick-out and still achieve high quality and penetration. This allows you to reduce the groove angle size in your workpieces, resulting in fewer welds needed to fill the gap.

Benefits
- Improved weld quality because of the heat-input is not affected by changes in stick-out.

- Fewer weld seams are requires to fill the groove, which reduces the time spent per weld.

- Three times faster filling of grooves compared to using MMA (stick) welding.

- Reduced amount of filler material leads to cost savings on consumables.

- Use the same MIG welding machine for both the root pass and additional layers.

Intelligent Spatter Control (ISC) from Migatronic – reduce spatter

The MIG/MAG function Intelligent Spatter Control (ISC) is an all-round spatter reduction process. With ISC, you can minimise the amount of spatter in all welding positions. Use it for short arc circuit processes to achieve minimal or zero spatter.

Benefits:
- Hardly any spatter.
- Less time spent on post-treatment.
- Minimise the total processing time for a workpiece.
- Leaves a great finish.

Coolant Saver Installation on Mazak

Coolant Saver Installation on Mazak

OLIMIN8R

The OLIMIN8R is an automatic pressure filter that removes the chips and fines that bypass the chip conveyor during the CNC Machining process. It can be connected to any existing CNC Machine sump with a tank height of 27” or less and coolant volume up to 400 gallons. The OLIMIN8R captures the dirty coolant as it exits the chip conveyor, removes the solids and delivers the clean coolant where most important – near the clean pumps.

It removes the chips and fines before they have a chance to settle onto the bottom of the CNC Machine sump, preventing the larger solids from piling up in the machine sump – creating a chip dam. This reduces sump clean outs and eliminates coolant
