- pjc50 12y agoRobot welding for repetitive jobs has long been automated. But the skill in welding is not so much performing the motions as working out what needs to be done.
- venomsnake 12y agoAnything that could not be remotely controlled with a joystick? You put the task on, the robot just gives control to the operator at critical moments?
- pjc50 12y agoHow does that help? You still need a skilled operator, surely?
- venomsnake 12y agoThat I will increase the skilled operator productivity several-fold.
- johnchristopher 12y agoYou expect the skilled operator to perform multiple complex weldings at the same time ?
- bluedino 12y agoA friend of mine is a welder, who has gotten into programming those robots. After showing a weld to his boss, his boss replied with "Didn't the robot do that?", to which he said "Well I programmed the robot!"
