Laser Solution for Automotive Cross Car Beam
Fiber laser tube cutting machines have the distinct advantage of processing Cross Car Beams (automotive cross beams) because they are complex components that make a decisive contribution to the stability and safety of every vehicle that uses them.
As individual beams inside the vehicle, they ensure that they do not compress the passenger compartment in the event of a side collision. Cross Car beams also support the steering wheel, airbags, and the entire dashboard. Therefore the quality of the finished product is of paramount importance.
Depending on the model, we can manufacture this key component from steel or aluminum, and the laser cutting machine performs well for cutting these materials.
Hyundai Motor Company is a famous motor company in Korea, that is committed to becoming a lifetime partner in automobiles and beyond. The company - leads the Hyundai Motor Group, an innovative business structure capable of circulating resources from molten iron to finished cars. To improve their production efficiency and upgrade their equipment, the company decided to introduce a tube laser cutting machine.
Customer Requirements on Cutting CCB
1. The customer's product is a pipe for the automotive industry, and it needs massive and automatic processing.
2. Pipe diameter is 25A-75A
3. The finished pipe length is 1.5m
4. The semifinished pipe length is 8m
5. After laser cutting, it requests that the robot arm can directly grab the finished pipe for follow-up bending and press processing;
6. Customers have requirements for laser cutting accuracy and efficiency, and the maximum processing speed is not less than 100 R/M;
7. The cutting section should have no burr
8. The cut circle should be close to the perfect circle
Golden Laser's Solution
After careful study, we set up a special research group including the R&D department and our production manager to figure out a solution for their cross-car beam cutting requirements.
On the base of P2060A, we customized one model P2080A pipe laser cutting machine to meet their requirements of cutting 8-length pipe and the automatic loading.
Pipe Laser Cutting Machine P2080A
At the end of material collecting, it added one robot arm for pipe grabbing. To ensure cutting precision, every single piece should be clamped tightly by the robot arm before cutting.
After cutting, the robot arm will deliver the pipe to later procedures for pressing and bending.
The holes of the bend pipe should be cut by the 3D robot laser cutting machine.
