ROBOTICS & AUTOMATION
THE FUTURE OF ROBOTIC WELDING
Currently, robotic welding is used only on a small portion of building projects. However, with emerging technologies, the trend is likely to change but its success hinges on various factors, including the choice of welding gas. Understanding the properties and applications of different gases is essential for achieving optimal weld quality, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. As technology continues to advance, the integration of robotic systems with the right shielding gas such as Ferromaxx® Plus from Air Products will play a crucial role in shaping the future of welding in numerous industries.

and low alloy steels, these gases give superb weld quality and excellent penetration together with minimal spatter and low fume levels. Air Products also
offers other high- performance gas mixtures designed for different material types such as stainless steel using Inomaxx® Plus and aluminium using Alumaxx® Plus. These gases see greater heat transfer which leads to a deeper, more rounded bead cross-section as well as a wider bead, with improved penetration. • Increase penetration depth • Faster welding travel speeds • Reduced porosity levels • More efficient use of filler wire • Increase range of operating parameter • Stable arc conditions at higher energy levels
• Reduced preheat requirement on thick section materials Inomaxx®, Alumaxx® and Ferromaxx® form part of the Maxx® gases range from Air Products.
Modes of supply to suit all needs Air Products offers the full range of
• Fewer cylinder change-overs • Less frequent deliveries • Reduced cylinder stocks
gas supply options including single cylinders, high volume cylinder packs and bulk liquefied gases. The high volume 300 bar 47 litre
cylinders contain 40% more gas than traditional cylinders and are designed for the larger fabricator. High volume packs consist of 18 manifolded 50 litre cylinders, containing over 50% more gas than conventional offerings. This results in cost savings for larger users by reducing pack changeovers, deliveries and rental costs:
For the largest gas users, Air Products will design and install on-site CryoEase® services or a bulk gas delivery system. This convenient method of supply enhances productivity, improves safety and reduces cost by eliminating cylinder handling and gas ordering. Air Products manages the project from start to finish and ensures compliance with all relevant national and international safety guidelines and legislation.
