[0002] Large-diameter steel pipes generally refer to those with a diameter of 325mm or larger. They are primarily categorized as seamless and seamed. Seamed pipes are made by welding steel plates together after bending. Currently, large-diameter steel pipes are welded using automated surface welding, while inner ring welding requires manual welding because the welding system cannot penetrate deep into the inner ring.

If the welded pipe is not squeezed, the weld seam will be large, and the welding quality of the steel pipe may be affected when the welding gun is used to weld the steel pipe; 2. Since steel pipes are also divided into many different diameters, this device cannot meet the requirements of welding steel pipes with slightly smaller diameters. Therefore, a large-diameter steel pipe welding robot is designed to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings. Utility Model Content
