Rexroth CKK Compact Modules Help AMET Welding Solutions Raise Performance, Reduce Costs for Wind Turbine Builders

Wind tower welding systems generally operate both inside and outside of the can at different times; the welding equipment is usually suspended from a guide rail for outside welding.

Challenge

  • Create custom wind turbine welding systems that provide dependable motion control while resisting particulates, hot sparks, and impacts
  • Reduce the costs of labor, assembly, and materials associated with linear motion control
  • Reduce building time
  • Reduce need for end user maintenance and downtime

One of the features that we noticed right away as a potential advantage for Rexroth actuators over other types is that their compact dual-rail system features a sealed rolling strip.
