GarLine – seam vision & tracking solutions for automated welding

We manufacture seam tracking laser sensors for automated welding. Our GarLine sensors and SHARPtrack welding system will be interesting to you for getting the most of autonomous welding and dispensing, boosting productivity, enhancing consistency and quality and obtaining a pristine perceived value in the end product.

We want to cooperate with you in your autonomous / robotic welding and dispensing projects!

Our GarLine sensors are:

• USER-FRIENDLY: an easy to use integrated sensor web interface. Configure seam and welding parameters with no effort and without any additional computers nor other devices.
• EASY TO INSTALL: we offer a plug&play seam tracking solution. For a complete sensor-welding system integration only a PoE switch and a single cat6e (rj45) cable are required.
• ROBUST AND COMPACT: the sensor successfully performs in a 0ºC / 70ºC working range, with the IP67 insulation grade, smart electronics and compact enough to fit in the palm of the hand.

GARLINE COMPATIBILITIES

Garmo Instruments Seam Finding for Cobots allows for an operator to set up a welding project by manually moving the cobot welding tool to the start point and the end point on a seam. The Garmo sensor will do the rest and will find and track the seam sending location coordinates automatically back to the robot controller at high speed (milliseconds)

GarLine C is completely integrated with Universal Robots cobots (with certified URCap). Welding operators can program the cobot for the Garmo tracked welding task directlry through the UR pendant:

Garmo Instruments are unique for Hard-Automation with our offering of a PLC compatible sensor interface so that all setup for a PLC drive project such as Column and Boom can be done through an appropriate PLC. Siemens and Rockwell are supported. Garmo PLC is intended for integration with hard-automation welding systems operated by PLCs (like slides, column & boom, rotary systems, etc.) We have pre-designed an application tool based on the Panasonic PLC, for your convenience.

This is an example of a success story using Garmo PLC for Keg Welding:
