Definition & Overview
A Two-Axis Positioner is an external robot axis device used in welding, assembly, or machining processes to achieve multi-angle rotation and tilting of workpieces. Through two independently moving axes (typically a rotary axis and a tilting axis), it enables precise positioning of the workpiece in space, ensuring the weld seam or machining area is always in the optimal position.
Core Function: Synchronized operation with robots to achieve all-position welding, suitable for complex weld seams (e.g., curves, inclined surfaces, polyhedrons).
Typical Structure: Comprises a base, tilting mechanism, worktable, and servo drive system.
Customer Pain Points & Solutions
Customer Industry Core Pain Points Two-Axis Positioner Solutions Shipbuilding Welding large hull sections/pipes requires frequent crane-assisted flipping; high risk associated with overhead work; hull deformation affects alignment accuracy. Workpiece is fixed on the worktable, automatically adjusting horizontal and vertical angles to avoid manual flipping; paired with laser calibration systems to improve alignment accuracy. Construction/Bridge Steel Structures Large steel beams and special-shaped nodes have numerous welds with complex orientations; traditional jig assembly requires high skill; unstable welding quality. Utilizes a Two-Axis Positioner, achieving 360° rotation + ±180° tilting, ensuring vertical and overhead welds are always performed in the flat position. Heavy Machinery Components like flanges and pipe fittings require continuous, uniform speed welding; manual operation is prone to missed welds, undercut, and low efficiency. Synchronized with the robot control system, completing continuous welding at a constant speed and angle, improving appearance quality and consistency. 
Structural Design & Key Technologies
1. Main Structure
- Rotary Mechanism: Uses RV reducer + AC servo motor, ensuring smooth rotation and precise positioning (accuracy ≤ ±0.1°).
- Tilting Mechanism: C-type frame supports the workpiece; rigid steel plate welded frame prevents deformation; load capacity ranges from 1 to 20 tons.
- Worktable: Surface machined with standard threaded holes (e.g., M20), supporting quick fixture installation; black oxide anti-rust treatment suits the welding environment.
2. Power & Control System
- Servo Drive: Responds to commands from the main robot controller, enabling synchronized and coordinated operation (e.g., synchronized start/stop with the welding robot).
- Current Conduction Device: Brass conduction mechanism avoids interference from welding current; equipped with quick-connect couplings for simplified utility (water/air/electric) line connection.
3. Safety Features
- Enclosed Protection: Prevents ingress of welding spatter into core components.
- Self-Locking Function: Brake motor can lock at any angle, ensuring safety under heavy loads.
Product Advantages
- Efficiency Improvement
Non-Stop Operation: Through synchronized robot control, reduces workpiece reloading time, increasing productivity by 30%-50%.
Multi-Station Configuration: Can be expanded into a dual-station three-axis positioner, enabling parallel loading/unloading and processing operations. - Quality Assurance
All-Position Welding: Maintains the optimal angle between the torch and weld seam, reducing defects like porosity and lack of fusion.
Rigidity & Vibration Damping: High stiffness structure reduces vibration during tilting, avoiding welding deformation. - Cost Optimization
Reduces Auxiliary Equipment: Replaces traditional crane flipping and manual positioning, reduces jig usage (saving 5%-15% on materials compared to traditional processes).
