ABICOR BINZEL announced in October the official release of the ABIROB Cyclone Robotic torch, recently debuted at FABTECH 2017.
The ABIROB Cyclone is a robotic welding torch with endless, 360-degree rotation and a “superior” current transfer that the company says high production operations demand. Cyclone, the evolution of the iconic ABIROB air-cooled torch series, achieves decreased program and cycle time for robot arms with endless clockwise or counterclockwise rotation on the axis-6.
The US-based company said, “The smooth rotation of the wrist insulator means there is no catch on the cable, so cable life is extended.
