2.03 Introduction
The new Tweco
®
Robotics Quick Robotic Light Weight Torch
(QRL) offers the ideal torch for “Table Top” robots. It is designed
for everyday applications that require a lighter weight and
smaller profile for robotic welding torch functions.
This factor is made possible due to the combination of a notable
reduction in the overall weight and size of the torch without
any affect on its superior reliability and repeatability.
The Quick Robotic Light Weight Torch gives the consumer the
same quality that is expected from all Tweco
®
Robotics
QRA
series torches, with close to half the weight and a significant
reduction in size.
2.04 Standard Features
Quick conductor tube lock for easy conductor tube
replacement.
40% lighter than the QRA series torch.
Lighter weight reduces the inertial effects on the torch
head and whipping action on the power cable giving
the torch more accuracy at arc initiation.
Smaller physical profile allows greater access to
confined spaces.
Uses proven components of the QRA series.
Uses existing conductor tubes and consumables.
Compatible with existing mount arms.
OPTIONAL
- Light Weight mount arm designed for the
Quick Robotic Light Weight Torch. Refer to Table 1.
