WeldCube Navigator Better control for better results

Real-time feedback solution for welding specialists

High-quality welds are essential for many products. Faulty or missed welded joints lead to high manufacturing costs. The earlier these faults are identified in the manufacturing process, the quicker it is to respond to them. Using the guidance and job pre-setting functions of the WeldCube Navigator can shorten the training and familiarization period for new welding specialists.

This not only saves resources but also time and money. This is how the WeldCube Navigator helps you to unleash your welding potential.

The benefits for you

Improve welding quality

Incorrectly used welding parameters or failing to follow the correct welding sequence can be challenges in the manufacturing process. With WeldCube Navigator you can avoid distortion or using incorrect welding parameters.

Shorten training and familiarization period

Supported by the WeldCube Navigator, new welding specialists can quickly get started in manufacturing. The WeldCube Navigator specifies which seams are to be welded using which parameters.

Respond to errors quickly

It is important to act quickly in the case of problems, particularly for safety-critical or multirun welds. By taking immediate corrective action, the number of rejected parts or time-consuming repair work can be minimized or even avoided entirely. WeldCube Navigator is able to halt further welding if there is an error until the affected seam is checked by a welding supervisor and the system is released again.

Two functions in one tool

2 in 1: The sequencer guides the welding specialist through the workprocess step-by-step, and the instructions required for this are digitally created in the editor.

ONE TOOL, TWO FUNCTIONS The Sequencer guides you clearly and simply through all the steps while the Editor digitizes and visualizes your work instructions for manufacturing.

Step 1 Log in to WeldCube Navigator and select the work instructions

Step 2 Step-by-step: A display visually shows the work steps in the defined order and the corresponding welding parameters are automatically set.

Step 3 Live monitoring and error alerts enable a quick response and correction if necessary to minimize waste and rework.

Step 4 Torch navigation: Users can operate the software 100 % using the torch trigger while they are working.

For welding steps, specifications such as the welding job to be used and the reaction in the event of an error (lock) can be specified. For multiple welding steps, the minimum and maximum number of seams to be welded can also be specified.

General work steps - marked in gray in the software - can be used, for example, to define preparation tasks, intermediate steps and rework.

Individual illustrations per work step offer maximum flexibility with regard to the information to be conveyed.

For welding steps - marked in blue in the software - a distinction can be made between multiple welds and simple welds to distinguish a variety of relevant production scenarios:

Tack welds
Weld seams
Multiple layers / beads

additional digital solutions

For seamless integration into your manufacturing processes:

Additional digital solutions in the Fronius WeldCube portfolio add further functionality for the WeldCube Navigator and provide optimal support in unleashing your full welding potential.

Minimal administration and maximum overview: You can assign individual authorizations to each user via the authorization system integrated into every Fronius welding system.

When someone logs in with a key card or fob, the system immediately knows what they are – and are not – allowed to do. Wondering how you can assign and manage authorizations centrally for several welding systems? A standalone solution in the WeldCube portfolio, Central User Management, provides the answer. With just a few clicks user rights are defined centrally for one or more welding systems and the relevant information is automatically sent to all connected systems.

Based on the welding data from all connected welding systems, WeldCube Premium offers intelligent management, analysis, and statistical functions, as well as graphical visualization of the results.

This means, for example, that an entire component could be visualized live and progress monitored during fabrication.

Integrated into the rework station, WeldCube Premium indicates the need for action and offers the option of setting the status of a seam/component to “OK” following successful repair.
