How Cobots are Bridging the Skills Gap in Welding Technology

Anzeige

Sponsored: Manufacturing companies that use welding technology are faced with the challenge of maintaining productivity despite an ongoing shortage of skilled workers. Welding cobots offer a practical, economical and efficient solution.

These collaborative robots take on repetitive, monotonous welding tasks, while the welders can focus on individual and complex tasks. Compared to industrial robots, they can be programmed quickly and easily and weld continuously with consistent quality. Because welding cobots can be flexibly integrated into existing processes, they are ideal for series production, prototype construction, reworking or even repair shops.

Companies that want to stay competitive cannot ignore automation – and welding cobots are the ideal way to get started. The whitepaper explains the advantages of using cobots, approaches to alleviating employees’ fears about automation and the potential benefits for production.
