Automatic welding
From mechanised welding, where parameters may be varied manually, to robotic welding, where sophisticated robot arms perform complex operations across multiple axes, the term ‘automatic welding’ covers a wide range of options, but generally refers to any welding that is carried out by machines controlled by electronic processes.
Automatic welding has the potential to increase productivity and profitability significantly by speeding up the welding process, improving weld quality and reducing both human error and labour costs. It can improve weld integrity and repeatability, capable of producing a better weld than any human welder and allowing almost instant quality control. However, as it is much less flexible than manual welding, automatic welding is not suitable for every application. It also requires a high level of initial investment and an extensive preventative maintenance schedule.
