The main purpose of positioner is to serve as welding auxiliary equipment, suitable for welding position shifting of rotary work to obtain ideal processing position and welding speed. 

Positioner is a multifunctional mechanical device specially used for assisting welding operation. Through the lifting, flipping and rotation of the workbench, the workpiece fixed on the workbench can reach the required welding and assembly angle. This equipment can be used in conjunction with the operating machine and welding machine to form an automatic welding center, and is also suitable for workpiece position shifting during manual operation. The workbench rotation of the positioner adopts variable frequency drive stepless speed regulation, with high speed regulation accuracy. The remote control box can realize remote operation of the workbench, and it can also be connected with the operating machine and welding machine control system to realize linkage operation.

The main function of the positioner is to realize the flipping and positioning of the workpiece during welding so as to obtain the best welding position, thereby shortening the auxiliary time, improving labor productivity, and improving welding quality. If the servo motor is used to drive the positioner to flip, it can be used as the external axis of the robot to realize linkage with the robot to achieve the purpose of synchronous operation. This equipment is widely used in the fields of engineering machinery industry, containers, steel pipe flanges, automobile manufacturing, etc. It can adapt to production work in different welding environments and realize the rotation, positioning and welding of non-rectangular workpieces such as frames, flanges, and steel pipes.

With the continuous development of social economy and science and technology, welding positioners have evolved from traditional single-degree-of-freedom and small-capacity equipment to dual-degree-of-freedom and multi-degree-of-freedom large-capacity welding positioners, which can change the weld angle in multiple dimensions, improve welding flexibility, and improve welding efficiency in practical applications while ensuring product welding quality.
