Arc welding has changed dramatically over the last decade. These advancements, along with the ability for power sources to connect to external devices has prompted robot manufacturers to refine robotic welding tools. This has inspired Yaskawa to develop a new Universal Weldcom Interface. Read More

Several months into a new decade, welding technology continues to advance and be implemented on factory floors throughout the Americas. Here’s a look at several trends that may be helpful in moving your operations forward. Read More

To meet diverse customer demands, a growing number of manufacturers are now implementing the robotic welding of aluminum parts via the gas metal arc welding (GMAW) process. Especially true for truck and trailer fabrication, the use of this lighter weight substrate offers several benefits. Read More

While advanced robotic welding solutions make it easier for manufacturers to tackle difficult, dangerous and dirty jobs, the most successful implementation and programming of robots occurs when experienced welders are involved. Read More

From streamlined robot models with faster acceleration/deceleration speeds to fully integrated turnkey robotic workcells, and everything between, new technologies for bolstering welding productivity will abound next month at FABTECH 2019 in the Yaskawa Motoman booth (#B27056). Read More
