Learning new skills:As the operator/programmer has to program the torch angles / positions and
sometimes also has to optimize the welding parameters, it is necessary for him to have a sound understanding of the welding process. Consequently, operators will
continuously improve their welding knowledge and skills in order to optimize the robot performance. In this way, previous experience allows the operator to learn new skills related to
robot programming and welding. These new skills enhance the creativity and the thinking in logical patterns. As a result, the operators will also become more at ease with
computers and their capabilities as used in the manufacturing environment. This provides not only the the operator but also the employer with a competitive edge. back |
