Abstract

Automated equipment is used for the ship fabrication process for higher productivity. However, in final assembly stage of ship structures, automatic welding system has the constraints for application because of inclination and curvature of the hull block. In order to solve these problems, an automatic welding system which has special mechanism to travel on the flexible rail has been studied. This paper describes the essential characteristics of the new automatic welding system equipped with the proper mechanism for flexible rail and continuously adjustable welding torch slider.
