Recommended Use Cases
Laser Welding of Round Bars using Yaskawa Robots
This welding automation solution utilizes the YASKAWA GP8 robot to perform high-precision laser welding on round bar products from multiple angles. Previously, an operator had to manually lift each workpiece, load it into the welding machine, and repeat the process for the opposite side once the first side was finished. This manual sequence has been fully automated using the robot. Continuous production is now possible regardless of operator availability. By leveraging the fast and precise YASKAWA GP8, the system achieves both guaranteed quality and enhanced productivity.
TIG Welding using the Rainbow Robotics RB3
This welding automation solution utilizes the Rainbow Robotics RB-3 collaborative robot combined with a TIG welder to weld the bended sections of metal plates. It is characterized by fast teaching capabilities and high space efficiency. In manual welding, quality varies significantly based on the operator's skill level. Additionally, due to the harsh working conditions, securing skilled welders is becoming increasingly difficult. With this solution, even unskilled workers can manage the loading and unloading of workpieces, while the robot handles the critical welding tasks. This ensures consistent, high-quality production regardless of human fatigue or skill level.
Steel Plate Press Assistance using Dual Yaskawa Robots
This automation solution utilizes two YASKAWA robots to assist in steel plate press operations. By automating the machine tending process, the system secures high operational stability and safety. Due to the nature of press processes—characterized by extremely short cycle times and high-risk environments—industrial accidents involving human operators are frequent. In this specific solution, the robots hold the workpieces during the pressing operation itself. By having two robots perform continuous, synchronized cross-work, the cycle time is minimized to just 2 seconds per unit, maximizing overall productivity.
