Arc sensor FD-AR
Automatic seam tracking by weaving.
- Allows correction of curved workpiece or thermal distortion which can’t be corrected only by detecting workpiece position.
- Applicable to workpieces with medium thickness or thicker.
- Most inexpensive among all the tracking sensors.
- Easy to use from the viewpoints of interference of workpieces and maintenance.
