Process Overview
This welding automation solution uses the Rainbow Robotics RB-5 and a NOUBELON DIGITAL MIG/MAG welder to weld cylindrical workpieces onto a plate, featuring fast teaching and high space efficiency. In manual welding, quality can vary significantly depending on operator skill, and the harsh working environment makes it difficult to secure experienced welders.
With this cell, even non-expert operators can simply load and unload parts, while the robot performs the critical welding process—enabling consistent weld quality and stable production output.
Components

| STEP 1. | Secure the workpiece in the welding jig |
|---|---|
| STEP 2. | Press the job start button |
| STEP 3. | The robot performs the welding operation |
Features
Higher efficiency and quality through smart division of work (robot + operator)
The robot handles the skill- and consistency-critical welding, while the operator focuses on part load/unload—improving throughput and weld quality at the same time.
Easy job teaching
Supports direct teaching, allowing the operator to physically guide/move the robot arm to teach paths.
Even if the model changes, additional teaching can be completed within 10 minutes.
Uses an Android-based tablet teach pendant, enabling easy app installation and high accessibility.
Robot optimized for welding environments
High IP rating (IP66) helps protect components in harsh welding shop conditions.
Compact, lightweight collaborative robot minimizes required installation footprint.
Peace of mind with warranty coverage
Provides a 1-year warranty (standard / free warranty period).
Results
| Key Benefits | Improved weld quality, Increased productivity to a level comparable to skilled welders |
|---|---|
| Client Feedback | Skilled welders were difficult to hire, and even after training foreign workers, it took time to build proficiency—making stable operation challenging with robot automation, we achieved consistent-quality welding, which significantly improved productivity. |

Recommended Solution
Smart Machine Tool Assistant "G-AiD" using Collaborative Robots
This machine tending solution automates the loading and unloading of parts by integrating three G-AiD small-precision (4-axis) machine tools with a Universal Robots UR10e. By arranging multiple machine tools in a compact space, a single robot can manage the entire workflow, significantly boosting operational efficiency and productivity. G-AiD features an Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) and tool wear sensing, enabling efficient task management. Furthermore, its seamless data integration with external systems makes it an ideal candidate for Smart Factory government support projects, helping to reduce initial investment costs. The project was implemented to resolve labor shortages in part machining, reduce personnel costs, and enable real-time quality monitoring and improvement through smart factory integration.
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.
