What Are The Welding Processes Of Welding Industrial Robots?

The welding industrial robot automates the process, ensuring higher accuracy, less waste and faster operation. With the wide application of mechanical equipment, welding industrial robots can adapt to a variety of welding processes including arc, resistance and spot welding. One of the most common welding processes for welding industrial robots is the arc welding process. Arc welding is a welding process in which metals are fused together by electricity. A direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC) current is used to form an arc between the electrode (consumable or non consumable) and the metal, melting them and bonding them together.

Resistance spot welding process: resistance spot welding is a welding process in which two shaped copper alloy electrodes are used to concentrate the welding current into one point and connect the plates together. A high current forced into a point causes the metal to melt and form a weld. By using a high current at a specific location, the rest of the plate is not heated during welding.

Spot welding process: since some materials can resist current, they cannot be welded in other forms. This situation often occurs in the automotive industry and is used to assemble the parts of the vehicle body. To overcome this problem, the welding industrial robot uses a variant of the resistance welding process to connect a pair of thin metal plates to one point.
