KP2769-45 - Lincoln Electric 45-Degree Robotic Torch Mount for External Dress

Lincoln Electric KP2769-45: Essential Automation Hardware

The Lincoln Electric KP2769-45 45 Degree Mounting Kit is a specialized accessory designed to integrate External Dress welding torches with industrial robots. In robotic MIG/MAG welding, the physical connection between the robot flange and the welding gun is the foundation of accuracy. This kit provides a fixed 45-degree offset, a standard configuration that balances accessibility to tight corners with effective cable management. It is engineered to mount the External Dress torch in the proper orientation for the specific application and fixturing presented to the robot.

Robust Design for Industrial Performance

Constructed from high-grade materials, the KP2769-45 is built to endure the harsh conditions of the welding environment. It resists deformation from thermal cycling and mechanical vibration, ensuring that the torch's Tool Center Point (TCP) does not drift over time. TCP stability is vital for offline programming and touch-sensing applications; a loose or flexing mount can cause the robot to miss the seam, resulting in rework or scrap. This mounting kit locks the torch in place, providing the rigidity required for high-speed travel and rapid acceleration/deceleration moves.

Compatibility and Application

This mounting kit is specifically intended for External Dress systems. Unlike through-arm systems where cables are internal, external dress systems require robust mounting brackets to handle the "whip" of the cable bundle. The 45-degree angle is often preferred for general-purpose welding as it allows the robot to maintain a neutral wrist posture while accessing horizontal and vertical fillets. When selecting a mounting kit, it is crucial to consult with the Automation Division or refer to your system's manual to ensure the KP2769-45 matches your specific robot model and torch configuration.

Key Benefits:

• Optimized Geometry: 45-degree angle maximizes joint access.
• Secure Fit: Eliminates play in the torch mount for better accuracy.
• Durability: Designed for long service life in heavy manufacturing.

Equip your robotic cells with the correct hardware to maximize uptime and weld quality. The Lincoln KP2769-45 is the professional's choice for secure, accurate torch mounting.
