Traditionally, manufacturers have relied on manual welding to assemble high-mix, low-volume products. But, more companies are turning to a new breed of flexible robots, software and controls.

If a vision system isn’t working optimally, engineers should check for mechanical, electrical and optical problems.

These tips and tricks will help you solve common MIG welding problems.

Although renowned for their flexibility, robots can still be limited by their end effectors. For example, equip your favorite SCARA robot with a suction gripper, and it will be hard-pressed

Flexible systems help drive down production costs.

Vision-guided robots can substantially increased the flexibility of today's automated assembly systems.

Whether applying a bead of adhesive to automotive glass or gasketing material to an appliance door, six-axis robots can dramatically improve the quality of the operation.
