Features
Fast and Precise Operation
High-Performance Motion: Utilizes a robot with rapid travel speeds and high repeatability for consistent output.
6-Axis Flexibility: The articulated robot enables welding from various angles and positions, ensuring full coverage of complex geometries.
Custom Design and Pre-Verification
Optimized Tooling: Custom end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) designed and manufactured to meet specific performance requirements.
Operational Flexibility: Provides the adaptability to handle changes in workpiece design, unlike fixed-purpose machinery.
Simulation-Based Validation: Uses 3D simulation to conduct interference checks and verify cycle time performance before on-site deployment.
Results
| Key Benefits | Increased productivity through continuous, non-stop operation.
Significant reduction in required manpower.
|
|---|---|
| Client Feedback | We maximized productivity by minimizing idle time. Previously, we were concerned about the lack of flexibility in dedicated machines when models changed, but by adopting a 6-axis articulated robot, we've secured that flexibility. We expect it to be much easier to adapt or upgrade the system when new models are introduced in the future.

Recommended Use Cases
Machining Center Tending through Doosan M1509
This automation solution utilizes the Doosan M1509 collaborative robot to support metal machining operations in a Machining Center (MCT). The project was designed to improve production efficiency, reduce defect rates, and enhance operational workflow by automating simple, repetitive tasks. In the previous process, workers had to stand by the equipment constantly to manually load each workpiece. By delegating the loading and unloading tasks to the robot, operators can now manage and run multiple machines simultaneously. Furthermore, by implementing Gun Solution's technology, the robot can perform tasks in the same manner as a human operator even on older legacy machine tools, effectively reducing costs associated with separate hardware interfaces.
Faucet Assembly using Five Doosan M0609 Units
This assembly automation solution utilizes five Doosan M0609 collaborative robots to fully automate the end-to-end assembly process of faucets. Previously, this process required a large number of workers to manually assemble each unit. By integrating collaborative robots with a conveyor system, continuous production across the entire process has been achieved. The transition from a manual line (where 5 workers produced 1,000 units per day) to an automated line (where 2 workers produce 1,200 units per day) has resulted in a significant improvement in productivity.
Aluminum Storage Tank Welding using Panasonic Welding System
This welding automation solution utilizes the Panasonic Automatic Welding System (Active-TAWERS) to enable multi-angle welding of aluminum storage tanks. By incorporating a positioner, the system can flawlessly perform tasks on large structures like silos or in locations that are difficult for human workers to reach. Implementing automation with the Panasonic system allows for the simultaneous achievement of high welding speeds and superior quality. Since the integrated welding system, robot, and positioner are provided as a single package, rapid installation and tuning are possible.
