Rise in Uptake of Industry 4.0 Principles
Industry 4.0 fully automates production processes with minimal to negligible human intervention. It works on the industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), cyber-physical systems, cloud robotics, cloud computing, and big data. As a result, welding robot manufacturers are moving to produce networked and intelligent robots compatible with Industry 4.0. Many end-use industries, such as automotive and transportation, metals and machinery, electrical and electronics, and aerospace and defense, have begun to implement Industry 4.0 concepts in their manufacturing processes to harness the advantages associated with it, including increased productivity, flexibility, and safety, better quality, decreased need for consumables, and reduced production costs.
Growing Adoption of Welding Robots in Automotive Industries
In today's technology-driven world, robots play an important role in manufacturing, with about half of those used for welding applications. Many of those welding robots are being used in the automotive industry. Over the past 30 years, automotive welding robots have been busy changing the industry. They have made automotive assembly lines faster, safer, cost-effective, and more efficient.
Automotive welding robots have made factories safer because they eliminate the risk of human errors causing accidents. An automotive robot can also work in hazardous conditions as it can withstand heat and chemical reactions and come into contact with structures and parts.
Rise in Demand for Laser and Plasma Welding Technologies
A laser welding robot uses a laser beam, developed using carbon dioxide, and aims to utilize optics at parts to weld different parts together. Laser welding technology offers significant advantages in mass production of medium and large batch sizes of output products at a low unit cost. It provides high welding speeds, reduces rework, provides high reliability, ensures increased weld quality, and offers high precision. This technology allows narrow welds, requiring minimal modification to the welded items. Laser welding technology is used in remote locations that are difficult to assess.
