Advantages of Automated Welding Solutions
Automated welding systems offer a number of advantages over manual welding systems, such as:
- Better weld quality. Weld quality depends on two factors: weld integrity and repeatability. Automated welding systems utilize electronic weld process controllers to ensure weld integrity. These components also allow for repeatable input parameters, resulting in consistent output.
- Lower scrap rate. In manual welding operations, the number of reject welds often increases as welders tire. Automated welding systems eliminate the effect of human fatigue and human error on welding operations, which depending on the value of the welded parts, can result in significant cost savings in scrap.
- Smaller labor costs. Automated welding systems reduce the number of human workers needed to complete a welding operation, which can dramatically decrease labor costs for the manufacturer.
Past Automated Welding Solutions From AMD
Throughout our years in business, we’ve provided welding solutions—i.e., solutions that involve the attachment of two or more components using energy in the form of heat—for a variety of customer applications. Examples of past projects include:
- Seam welding equipment for leakproof assemblies
- Projection welding equipment for nuts, screws, and other components
- Press welding equipment for brackets
- Simple pneumatic MIG/TIG welding stations for line welding
- 360-degree MIG/TIG welding stations for continuous or intermittent welding along the perimeter of a round part
- Welding robot cells with interchangeable welding fixtures for flexible welding applications
We can combine several welding processes around an index table. If you have a specific welding need, we can suggest a tailored-made solution based on the production process, volume, variety of parts, and quality requirements.
