    AccuFast II

    Non-Contact Seam Finding Sensor

    Key Benefits
    Improve weld quality
    Reduce cycle times
    Built-in jobs for different joint types
    Compatible with variety of materials

    Application
    Arc Welding

    Controller

    • Economical non-contact seam • Macro Job routines simplify
    DX100 finder utilizes a commercial point programming by providing a single

    • AccuFast II is compact, mounted in-line with the


    welding torch and is compatible with Yaskawa
    Motoman’s industry-leading MA- and VA-series
    thru-arm robots, as well as standard 6-axis robots.
    • Can be combined with ComArc thru-arc seam
    tracking for contoured parts or long seams that
    may distort while welding.
    • The sensor uses the same input and output signals
    as traditional touch sense, allowing it to be easily
    retrofitted into existing robot installations. Touch
    sensing option can be combined with AccuFast II to
    detect joints that may have optic interference.
