Robotic Welding: How to get started? - Part 2

Robotic welding was first used in the automotive industry. Robot welders began to be very popular in the 1980’s and were mainly used for spot welding. Nowadays, the number of applications which use robot welders has grown substantially. In 2005, over 120,000 robots were used in North American industry and half of them were welding robots. When considering robot welding for your production a lot of elements need to be considered. We will discuss this below in the second part of Robotic Welding: How to get started?. For this article, we will refer to Gas Metal Arc Welding (or MIG Welding) since this robotic application is very popular.
