Consistency and Reliability with Robotic Spot Welders

Mar 11, 2014

Robotic spot welding will bring consistency and reliability to your production line. Spot welding robots can be used in a wide range of applications such as automotive, aerospace, rail and defense industries. They can bring greater levels of speed and accuracy to the manufacturing process.

Robot­ic spot weld­ing is one of the most com­mon uses for robot weld­ing sys­tems today. Spot weld­ing robots are used in sev­er­al dif­fer­ent indus­tries, includ­ing the auto­mo­tive, aero­space, rail and defense indus­tries. Robot­ic spot welders are con­sis­tent and reli­able, while also con­tribut­ing a high­er lev­el of speed and accu­ra­cy to the application.

Spot weld­ing is not an easy job, espe­cial­ly when it is per­formed man­u­al­ly. Spot weld­ing guns are heavy and awk­ward, and it can be dif­fi­cult for a welder to reach cer­tain angles. With the help of robot­ic spot weld­ing sys­tems, this is no longer a prob­lem for many man­u­fac­tur­ers. Spot weld­ing robot­ics are able to reach those dif­fi­cult weld­ing angles because of extend­ed reach and rota­tion abilities.

Like many oth­er types of appli­ca­tions tak­en over by robots, spot weld­ing can be a dan­ger­ous appli­ca­tion for work­ers. While burns are always a con­cern when work­ing with an appli­ca­tion like weld­ing, there is also the issue of arc glare, which can dam­age the eyes, and weld­ing fumes, which can cause issues for the res­pi­ra­to­ry sys­tem. An invest­ment in a robot­ic spot welder will take the work­er away from the dan­ger­ous area, and put them behind the robot as an oper­a­tor. This also allows the work­er to learn new, mar­ketable skills. It is a win-win for the employ­er and the employ­ee – increased pro­duc­tion, decreased pro­duc­tion inter­rup­tions and bet­ter skills.
