Three solutions for welding robotization

11 de diciembre de 2019

Welding robots are no longer just a treat for a few. The introduction of robust yet affordable welding robotization solutions to the market has lowered the threshold to improving welding productivity or quality through automation. There are several things to keep in mind when deciding on the best solution for your company – to help you make the choice I will outline three alternative approaches on this blog post.

Automation and robotics on the rise as labor shortage continues

Automation and robotics on the rise as labor shortage continues

Robotics and welding automation have been on the agenda of manufacturing companies for quite a while. Welding robots are said to remove human error and even projected to learn with high endurance, speed and precision. In the past five years, we have also seen the addition of collaborative robots, cobots, to the market.

Safety that keeps up with welders' challenges and changing risks

Safety that keeps up with welders' challenges and changing risks

Welding safety has become increasingly demanding. The hazards at the arc remain constant, but modern working conditions mean exposure can accumulate over longer shifts and in tighter indoor spaces. As a result, welding PPE needs to be treated as both protection for the welder and proof of compliance. At Kemppi, welding safety PPE is designed and validated in practice through clear requirements, welder-led feedback, and verified compliance with EU PPE Regulation 2016/425, CE marking processes, and relevant EN standards.
