Core Viewpoint - The 28th Beijing Essen Welding and Cutting Exhibition showcased advancements in collaborative welding robots, emphasizing the theme "Intelligent Leadership for a Collaborative Future" and highlighting the potential of Huayan Robotics in the automation and intelligent welding sector [1][18]. Group 1: Product Features and Innovations - Huayan Robotics, a top three manufacturer of collaborative welding robots in China, focused on enhancing precision, adaptability, and collaboration capabilities of their robots at the Essen Exhibition [2]. - The E10L-Pro demonstrated integrated end-effector force control, requiring less than 3N of drag force for operation, significantly improving programming efficiency and simplifying welding processes [2]. - The Elfin-Pro, equipped with advanced laser sensors, can accurately identify weld seam positions and adjust the welding path in real-time, enhancing automation and reducing the need for precise manual input from welders [2]. Group 2: Expanded Capabilities - The E03-Pro, in conjunction with a seventh axis, expands the operational range to cover several meters while ensuring safety in human-robot collaboration, catering to large workpieces like ships and engineering machinery [4]. - A collaborative large-arm welding robot, designed for heavy structures, features an 1.8-meter reach, allowing it to access distant welding points without repositioning, thus improving efficiency for large-scale projects [6]. - The portable E05-Pro welding workstation is designed for mobile welding applications, allowing for easy transport and setup in confined spaces, with a high protection rating of IP66 for operation in challenging environments [8]. Group 3: Advanced Technologies - The introduction of a 3D vision system in collaborative robots enables them to autonomously identify weld seams and adjust for any positional deviations, simplifying the welding process for operators [10]. - Laser welding robots, which offer significant advantages in thin plate welding, can achieve speeds of 6-12m/min, improving efficiency by 2-3 times compared to traditional methods, while also ensuring safety through non-contact processing [12]. - The "Robot+" strategy aims to explore new application scenarios for collaborative robots, including an electric-driven mobile workstation that can autonomously navigate and adjust its height for welding tasks [14]. Group 4: Future Directions - At the 2025 Essen Welding Exhibition, Huayan Robotics plans to showcase new functionalities, products, and applications, reinforcing its commitment to innovation in collaborative robot technology and building a collaborative industrial ecosystem with global partners [18].
