Abstract

Optimising welding performance SUBSTANTIAL gains in productivity in many welding operations have resulted from the use of arc welding robots. However, possibilities for even greater gains are being overlooked because many robot suppliers simply set up installations to take over from manual MIG welding with solid wire. Often output could be boosted and costs reduced by up to 30%, simply by changing from solid to metal‐cored wires.
