WELDING
Welding is a metal joining process which produces
coalescence of metals by heating them with or
without using filler material.
It can be pressurized or non-pressurized.
ROBOTIC WELDING
(Welding processes)
ROBOTIC WELDING
ROBOTIC WELDING
It is a welding process that is performed &
controlled by robotic equipments.
It was first introduced in United States
industries during the 1960s.
It mainly uses GMAW & resistance spot
welding process.

ROBOTIC WELDING
ROBOTIC ARC
WELDING
Principle of arc welding consists of establishing an
electric arc between a metal electrode and the
work piece.
It generally involves GMAW process, which is also
known as MIG welding or MAG welding process.
A power is required to arc weld which is supplied
by the welding machine, known as power source.
Welding torch is used to transmit current from a
welding cable to electrode.

ROBOT ANATOMY
Robot consists of a manipulator which is a
series of mechanical links and joints capable of
producing all sorts of designed movements.
The body, arm and wrist assembly of a robot is
called as a manipulator.
Each link of a manipulator is operated by either
hydraulic or pneumatic power cylinder or
electrical motors.
The forearm of a robot can move in a nearly
spherical way, thus covering a large work
volume and providing greater application
flexibility.

22 angled, or 45 angled. All three variants
impress through a robust construction, with the
torch neck manufactured in stainless steel, capable
of withstanding the most arduous of conditions.

BENEFITS OF ROBOTIC
WELDING
Improved product quality
High precision and productivity
Decreases scrap and rework
Reduced labor cost
Operators safety
ROBOTIC WELDING
APPLICATIONS
Robotic welding is widely used in automotive
industry.
It is used in manufacturing plants.
It is used in dockyards to weld heavy parts of
ships.
ROBOTIC WELDING
RECENT ADVANCES
Recent advances in robotic welding
technology is pipe welding during ship
fabrication.
It is able to weld the joints in any position.

ROBOTIC WELDING
CONCLUSI
technology of ON
robotics relieve
This
people from
boring, repetitive, hazardous and unpleasant work
as human labor.
Robots can accomplish routine, undesirable work
better than humans at a lower cost.
Automation of work through robotics will lead to
substantial increase in productivity, and that
productivity increases year by year & would permit
humans to engage in activities that are cultural
and recreational.
Not only will robotics improve our standard of
living, it will also improve our standard of life.
