Welding is an important part of many production processes, but hiring and managing skilled welders can be expensive.
Automated welding systems reduce this expense while increasing productivity and quality. Automation is right for your business if you require accurate or critical welds and repetitive welds on identical parts.
Cost-Effectiveness
Whether you’re looking to add a robotic welding system or improve an existing one, Miller automation products can help you achieve state-of-the-art weld results with minimal costs and downtime.
The cost-effectiveness of automated welding systems can be especially significant for businesses with large production requirements. A semi-automatic system typically produces twice the output of two skilled welders, so it can help to reduce labor costs and maximize productivity.
Automated welds are also more consistent than manual welds, resulting in lower scrap and rework costs. This allows manufacturers to use more filler material and less weld wire, reducing the overall production cost of their product.
Automated welding also can eliminate safety risks, preventing employee injuries from dangerous arc flash and extreme heat. This can be a valuable addition to any manufacturing company.
Increased Productivity
Aside from labor savings, automated welding offers many other benefits for your business. This includes cutting cycle times, improving throughput, and increasing overall productivity.
For one, robotic cells are better equipped to handle the hazardous environments that manual welders typically operate in. These cells are equipped with safety features that protect workers from arc flashes, sparks, fumes, and more.
Automation also increases worker satisfaction and reduces turnover. It allows people to work with various materials and can accommodate high-mix/low-volume projects that require thoughtfulness and skill on the part of a person.
Moreover, robotic welding can cut waste by precisely programming each weld and doesn’t overweld. This saves time and money in both raw materials and production costs.
Increased Quality
Automated welding is an excellent option for your business if the quality of your products depends on a high-quality weld. It’s also ideal for businesses that assemble limited quantities of products with repetitive welds on identical parts.
Welding robotic systems are highly accurate and consistent, reducing errors and waste. They also create higher-quality welds using fewer resources.
They can dial in and regulate process variables for better control and faster travel speeds and reduce the non-welding time and waste caused by your human workforce.
Robotic welding systems also use fewer materials than manual welding, reducing scrap parts and consumables that go to landfills.
When choosing a welding automation system, consider your production needs and budget. In addition, ensure that the supplier has the skills to help you design and implement an automated system.
Increased Customer Satisfaction
Automated welding reduces the amount of waste in production and improves the overall quality of work for everyone involved in welding processes. This means that the customer will receive a better-quality product and will be satisfied with the final result.
In addition, automated welding helps improve workers’ safety in the process. They are less likely to get hurt or suffer any kind of physical discomfort during the welding process.
Collaborative robots, or cobots, are another option for automating your welding processes. They are flexible and can perform a wide range of tasks depending on what project you’re working on.
With strategic alliances between equipment manufacturers that previously functioned independently, these robotic welding solutions are often within reach for small-lot applications. They also provide the same level of accuracy and repeatability as more complex systems. Moreover, digital communication networks have made it possible to monitor and control the entire system remotely, in a control room, or outside the facility.
