Application and Research of In-situ Circular Pipe Welding Robot Technology of Large Diameter Steel Pipes
Welding is one of the traditional important processing methods in manufacturing industry,and its ap-plication field is very wide.With the development of modern information and automation technology,welding automation and intelligence have become an inevitable trend,especially for large-diameter and thick-walled met-al water pipelines.Because the welding of large water pipelines is generally carried out in the field,relying on traditional manual welding can no longer meet the welding requirements.In order to meet this requirement,the pipeline full-position automatic welding technology comes into being and has been widely used in many fields.This new technology can not only improve the welding quality,but also ensure the stability of pipeline use.After continuous research and development and innovation,the existing pipeline all-position automatic welding technology has achieved certain development results,and rotary welding robots and arm welding robots have been applied in practical projects.However,the rotary welding robot needs heavy pipes for rotary weld-ing,which is mainly suitable for pipeline processing plants.However,the movable radius of arm welding robot is easily limited.Therefore,in-situ round pipe welding automation technology can better meet the needs of field welding of large-diameter water pipelines.Based on the construction of the Lijiayan Reservoir water pipeline project,the application and research of large-diameter steel pipe in-situ round pipe welding robot technology is introduced.
