Breakthroughs in Robotic Welding for Structural Steel Yield Exceptional Margins
For most fabricators, the thought of robotic welding of structural steel seems an impossible task, but it is actually VERY simple. The presenter will show you how simple it really is. Recent advances in AI now allow rapid conversion of detailed steel assemblies into robotic paths, that welding robots follow automatically, and weld consistently without any human intervention. We will look at the most important parameters, who should consider this solution, where it works, and where it doesn’t, and how fast it will pay for itself on your shop floor. Come and see why so many fabricators who were initially hesitant, now have multiple machines, welding steel assemblies faster than ever before at a fraction of the cost to do it manually. There have been very few machines introduced into the steel fabricator world that have had a more rapid adoption and have forever changed the fabricating landscape so quickly.
