The AGEN RSSA Duo is a heavy-duty robotic solution for structural steel fabricators who need high-volume output. It features a unique two-robot tandem workflow:
Robot A (The Fitter): Uses magnetic grippers (up to 200kg capacity) to pick, place, and accurately position plates and stiffeners.
Robot B (The Welder): Follows immediately behind to perform high-strength MAG welds, ensuring zero downtime between fitting and finishing.
Key Technical Specifications:
Configuration: Dual Robot (1x Handling/Fitting, 1x Welding)
Robot Brand: ABB Industrial Robotics
Models Available: * LD (Light Duty): 4 Ton capacity / 700mm profiles; HD (High Duty): 6 Ton capacity / 1,100mm profiles; XD (Extra Duty): 6 Ton capacity / 300kg Plate Handling
Max Profile Length: 12,000mm (Extendable to 18,000mm)
Welding System: Fronius 500A Water-Cooled (Synergic)
Software: AgenQ 3D CAD interface (No manual teaching required)
Tracking: ESAB Weld Cloud is integrated for quality assurance and traceability.
Top 5 Benefits of the "Duo" System:
Concurrent Processing: One robot fits while the other welds. This eliminates the "wait time" found in single-robot cells.
Heavy Plate Handling: The XD model handles plates up to 300kg—far beyond what a human or a standard welding robot can manipulate.
Eliminate Tack-Welding Errors: Precision robotic placement ensures every stiffener and footplate is exactly where the CAD model says it should be—every time.
No Programming Needed: Load your Tekla or 3D CAD files . The system generates its own collision-free paths for both robots.
Future-Proof Extensions: Modular design allows for "Lights-Out" remote operation and profile extensions up to 18 meters for bridge and heavy infrastructure work.
