New welding robots culmination of complete automation process

The company Van Hool from Belgium has reached a culmination for his department Industrial Vehicles in the wave of complete automation processes, which has already started a number of years ago.

With the order of 3 big welding robot installations (with the possibility of more to follow in the futher) Van Hool is going to be welding complete stainless steel container tanks and tank trucks.

These projects were only possible thanks to a number of well-known solutions of Valk Welding such as the calibrated Panasonic welding robots, the DTPS offline programming package, the Automatic Path Generator (APG) for the automatic creation of robot programs, and, above all, the Valk Welding Arc-Eye CSS laser tracking system.

Previous to this project very important advanced welding trials in which the Panasonic arc welding technology with, among other things, the state-of-the-art Dip Pulse welding process were executed with great success.
The current welding speed as well as the weld quality where not reachable until now.

After a very comprehensive market study and several tests at the well-known market players the decision to go for Valk Welding was taken unanimously. “ The unique degree of flexibility with the Panasonic welding robots we already knew, as well as the service of Valk Welding. The successful welding trials on our stainless steel products were actually the only survey point what we at Valk Welding still wanted to run " according to Daniel Kemp, production director department Industrial Vehicles. “Given the very high degree of complexity as well as the enormous importance for Van Hool, the very passionate and experienced team of Valk Welding is also a very important point in our decision-making process" says Jos Hendrickx, responsible for the production of tankers, container tanks and gas tanks.

“Both in terms of technology and in terms of project approach another fine example of our "strong connection".
