CrashBox /i

General

CrashBox /i PAP fitted to robot arm
The CrashBox /i is a protection device for the torch body, the drive unit, the wire brake
and the torch body coupling. In the event of a collision, the CrashBox sends a signal to
the robot control, which stops the robot immediately. The torch holder on the CrashBox
protects the welding torch and the system components fitted from damage should a colli-
sion occur.
The clamp system is used for holding gas-cooled and water-cooled robot welding tor-
ches. With torch body curvatures of 22°, 36° and 45°, the clamp system positions the
welding torch in such a way that the TCP is in the 6th axis or at a 45° angle to the 6th
axis, depending on the torque angle gauge.
A robot-specific, isolated robot flange is required for fitting the CrashBox /i.
