Arc Welding
Background
Manufacturing faces shortages and aging among skilled welders, while arc welding involves heat, arc light, fumes, and difficult retention. Startups especially depend on stable weld quality to win customer trust, making automation increasingly important.
Industry Pain Points
Labor Shortage, Weld Consistency, and Health Risks
Skilled welders are in short supply and increasingly hard to retain.
Manual hand shake and speed variation can cause spatter, burn-through, and uneven welds.
Arc light, fumes, and heat create significant health risks.
01
Cost and ROI
UFACTORY cobots provide competitive welding execution hardware, helping integrators reduce procurement and integration cost and shorten payback.
02
Plug-and-Play Setup
The ISO flange and standard I/O simplify integration of MIG/TIG torches, wire feeders, gas systems, and welding peripherals.
03
Open Development
ROS/ROS2 packages and Python/C++ SDKs support process-specific welding integration and advanced applications such as seam locating.
04
Weld Quality Consistency
±0.02 mm repeatability helps maintain stable travel speed and torch posture along the seam, reducing spatter, burn-through, uneven welds, rework, and scrap.
05
Manual Teaching
Drag teaching lets welders guide the torch to start and end points with the desired angle, turning process experience into robot programs.
06
Vision Integration
The UFACTORY 850 connects to 2D/3D vision for workpiece and weld-seam localization on flexible lines with position variation.
07
Flexible Changeover
Lightweight construction and manual teaching support faster product changeover and lower retrofit cost across varied welding tasks.
08
Labor Value Release
Robots take on repetitive welding, moving skilled welders toward process setup and quality control while easing welder shortages and capacity bottlenecks.
