The Lincoln Electric AutoDrive© S Wire Feeder Air-Blast One-Pak© (K4306-100IC/6LA) represents the pinnacle of automated wire delivery technology. Designed specifically for seamless integration with the Fanuc© Arc Mate 100iC/6LA robotic arm, this system is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of high-volume industrial manufacturing. In the world of automation, consistency is currency, and the AutoDrive S delivers unparalleled reliability through its advanced servo-motor design.
This "One-Pak" solution simplifies the procurement and installation process by bundling the essential components required to outfit your Fanuc robot. It eliminates the complexity of matching brackets, cables, and insulators, providing a bolt-on solution that gets your welding cell operational faster. The compact and lightweight form factor of the AutoDrive S ensures that the robot's payload capacity is maximized for the torch and other peripherals, rather than being consumed by heavy feeding equipment. This specific model is tailored for the "6LA" (Long Arm) variant of the 100iC, ensuring cable lengths and mounting geometries are perfectly matched to the robot's kinematic range.
A standout feature of this unit is the integrated Air-Blast capability. In continuous welding operations, the accumulation of copper dust, shavings, and other debris within the liner and contact tip can lead to micro-arcing, burn-backs, and erratic feeding. The Air-Blast system allows for programmed bursts of high-pressure air to purge the wire conduit, significantly extending consumable life and reducing unscheduled maintenance stops. When paired with Lincoln's Power Wave® power sources, the AutoDrive S utilizes ArcLink® digital communication to provide real-time feedback and control, ensuring that the wire feed speed reacts instantaneously to changes in arc conditions.
For facility managers and automation engineers, the K4306-100IC/6LA offers a robust, low-maintenance solution that enhances the overall efficiency of the welding cell. Its durable aluminum housing protects sensitive components from the harsh industrial environment, while the tool-less drive roll system allows operators to change wire types quickly, minimizing changeover time.
