Robotic Air-Cooled Guns

Tregaskiss has introduced the third evolution of its TOUGH GUN Robotic Air-Cooled MIG Gun product line, new TOUGH GUN CA3 and TOUGH GUN TA3 Robotic Air-Cooled MIG Guns. These MIG guns bring together the top features of the TOUGH GUN G1 and G2 Series Robotic MIG Guns and upgrades designed to enhance durability, reliability and accuracy. A black gun body simplifies identification of the new guns compared to legacy products.

Both air-cooled guns feature a re-engineered neck clamp designed to improve durability and consistency of clamping force, along with additional standard neck options that allow companies to expand the range of tool center points (TCPs) and working envelopes. Additional standard options reduce costs and lead times for special necks and/or arms, while also simplifying the transition from standard TOUGH GUN G2 Series configurations, stated the company.

The TOUGH GUN CA3 Robotic Air-Cooled MIG Gun is a direct replacement for the TOUGH GUN G1 Series MIG Gun that maintains TCP with minimal or no robotic programming touch ups. Designed for conventional robotic welding systems, the gun also features a new replaceable unicable. "It promotes extended service life to twice that of standard unicables, reducing costs and downtime for changeover. This benefit is the result of a new dual layer cable; the outer jacket resists ultraviolet radiation and abrasion while the inner layer is specifically formulated to resist thermal fatigue. The copper content of the new replaceable unicable has also been increased compared to standard unicables, allowing for operation at higher current ranges," said a company spokesperson.

The TOUGH GUN TA3 Robotic Air-Cooled MIG Gun is a direct replacement for the TOUGH GUN ThruArm G1 Series MIG Gun and features the Tregaskiss Low-Stress Robotic (LSR) Unicable, a rotating power connection that allows for stress-free rotation.
