Improve Robotic Welding Applications with Seam Finding and Tracking

Welding is one of the first manufacturing applications to have been automated in industry. Its complexity and the fact that it is a hazardous job has made it the perfect application to give to industrial robots. Since this time, a lot of other robotic applications have been robotized. In some previous posts, we have talked to you about how vision systems improve actual robotic applications by giving eyes to robot arms. Well, robotic welding also follows this trend, since through the help of vision, welding applications can be improved for even better results.
