Aluminum Robotic Welding

What is robotic welding exactly, and what are the advantages of welding with a robot? Aluminum robotic welding is a technique commonly used in industries such as automotive and sheet metal manufacturing. The robot performs welding operations and is controlled by a computer. The pre-programmed robot can carry out various welding tasks autonomously. That’s why we often deploy welding robots for large batch or series productions.
After answering the question “what is robotic welding,” below are the advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages and disadvantages of welding with a robot

Welding with a robot offers various advantages, especially when compared to manual welding.

  • Robot welding results in significant labor cost savings for the right quantities.
  • A robotic welding machine or welding robot can be seen as a robot arm that repeats the same movement or sequence of movements, ensuring consistent quality. The welding robot is an excellent way to increase production, maintain consistent quality, and reduce costs.

However, welding with a robot also has disadvantages:

  • Programming the robot takes time. Robot welding is less suitable for one-time use or small batches.
  • Robot welding is not suitable for processes like TIG welding, where the welding wire needs to be manually added.

If you want to weld larger quantities of workpieces in batch or series and aim for optimal consistency in quality, welding with a robot might be the best choice for you. We at Aluminized are specialized in aluminum robotic welding and are ready to assist you!
