Comparison of Manual and Robotic MAG Welding-Related Costs and Efficiency in Terms of Quality and Social Factors
Journal Title: Biuletyn Instytutu Spawalnictwa - Year 2018, Vol 62, Issue 2
Abstract
The article is concerned with the implementation of robotic welding processes taking into consideration economic, quality-related and social factors. The robotisation of welding processes has been an ongoing process in the global market for many years, yet social and economic factors, particularly in Poland, continue to be responsible for a relatively small number of robotic welding implementations. The study presents the comparative analysis related to welding costs and efficiency.
