KP3194-3 - Lincoln KP3194-3 Fanuc iC Robot Collision Disk

Safeguard Your Fanuc iC Robots

Maximize the lifespan of your robotic welding equipment with the Lincoln Electric KP3194-3 External Dress Break-Away Disk. Specifically manufactured for Fanuc iC robots equipped with external dress packages, this component is the unsung hero of the robotic welding cell. Every welder and operator knows that in the real world of manufacturing, collisions happen. Whether it is a clamp that failed to open, a jig that wasn't seated correctly, or a slight deviation in the part fit-up, the welding torch is always at risk of striking an obstruction. The KP3194-3 acts as a safety shield for your robot's wrist, absorbing the shock of these impacts so your expensive machinery doesn't have to.

The "External Dress" design refers to the cable management system where the liner and power cable run outside the robot arm. This configuration requires a specific mounting interface to handle the weight and torque of the whip while allowing for the necessary freedom of movement. The KP3194-3 provides this secure mounting point but adds a layer of collision protection. In the event of a crash, the disk is engineered to break away or displace, effectively disconnecting the torch from the drive force of the robot. This action saves the torch neck from bending beyond repair and protects the robot's internal gears from stripping under the sudden load.

Why Choose the KP3194-3?

• Sacrificial Design: It is far cheaper to replace a break-away disk than a robot servo motor or a precision welding torch.
• OEM Reliability: As a genuine Lincoln Electric part, it integrates seamlessly with your Lincoln welding package and Fanuc robot.
• Maintenance Friendly: The design allows for straightforward installation, helping maintenance teams get the cell back online quickly.

At Welders Supply, we know that downtime kills profitability. When a robot is down, parts aren't being made. That is why we recommend keeping essential spares like the KP3194-3 on hand. It is a small investment that offers massive insurance against the unpredictability of automated welding. Don't let a simple crash result in days of repair work. Equip your Fanuc iC robots with the proper break-away protection and ensure that your shop floor remains productive, efficient, and profitable. This disk is built to withstand the rigors of daily industrial use while standing ready to perform its safety function the moment it is needed.
