Maximum productivity and consistent quality are critical in automated welding processes. This requires robust, high precision ...

Spot diameters of about 1 mm are realistic ... Contour welding produces very shallow join depths, and the width of the welding seam is smaller than that produced using comparable processes.

A critical component of robotic welding is the seam tracking system, which ensures that the welding torch accurately follows the joint or seam of the materials being welded. Recent research has ...
