HONGLU SMART ROBOT OPERATING SYSTEM
- System developed entirely independently by Honglu.
- Deeply integrated welding process function, using vision system to accurately locate the welds of components. Based on the obtained weld coordinate data, the system integrates a specialized database to automatically generate welding programs.
- The software is deployed on a personal computer (PC) system, which can be placed anywhere. Through the TCP/IP protocol, the system allows remote control and operation of welding equipment.
1. Operating Principle – REVERSE MODELING MODE

- (1) The robot performs a comprehensive scan of the workpiece details through a global camera (can simultaneously scan multiple parts in the work area)
- (2) A reverse model is constructed based on the scanned point cloud data
- (3) The software automatically extracts weld path information, matches welding parameters, and plans
- (4) Conducts inspection, simulation, and collision detection of the entire robot's movement path. After verifying no errors, the program is sent to the robot
- (5) The robot executes the welding process: scans and accurately locates each weld path before starting welding
2. Operating Principle – 3D IMPORT MODE

- (1) Import 3D file (STEP, IGS, IFC). The software automatically analyzes the geometric relationship between objects
- (2) The operator performs laser scanning and origin positioning to determine the workpiece location
- (3) The software automatically outputs weld path information, matches welding parameters, and plans the welding trajectory
- (4) Conducts inspection, simulation, and collision detection of the entire robot's movement. After verifying no errors, the program is sent to the robot
- (5) The robot executes the welding process, scans, and accurately identifies each weld path before starting

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE CANTILEVER ROBOT STATION SOLUTION (SUSPENDED) 8-AXIS MIG/MAG HONGLU
- No-teaching system: Accurate 1:1 3D simulation of robot movements, predicting cycle and collision, reducing programming time
- Dedicated robot controller for welding: Integrates medium-thick plate welding technology packages, supports arc tracking by current, laser, weld path positioning, and image acquisition.
- Point cloud processing: Analyzes scan data to locate workpieces, identify weld paths, and construct reverse modeling.
- 8-axis MIG/MAG HONGLU cantilever robot station fully supports traditional teaching and No-teaching functions: For specific welds or limited spaces, operators can manually teach points; the robot will automatically match welding parameters and execute the weld path according to the optimal program.
