In manufacturing, the complexity and challenges of welding aluminum components have long been a roadblock. Aluminum’s inherent properties, including surface oxidation and the propensity to build up caps, interfere with welding quality and efficiency. This not only increases time and cost but also shortens the lifespan of welding tips. KUKA, an industrial automation pioneer, has…

In today’s advanced automotive manufacturing landscape, the emphasis on the use of lightweight materials such as high-strength steel grades, aluminum, and aluminum alloys has never been greater. As industries evolve, they necessitate the development of innovative technologies to ensure the highest quality spot welds, given these materials require a high degree of force accuracy. For…

The world of manufacturing is continuously challenged by the demand for precision, efficiency, and reliability. Especially in welding operations, the quality of results heavily depends on achieving accurate and consistent pressures, which can be a labor-intensive and time-consuming process. This is where the KUKA.ServoGun steps in, fundamentally transforming the traditional welding calibration process to drive…

Industrial manufacturers face a myriad of challenges, with one of the most critical being achieving consistent, high-quality spot welding. Factors such as gun positioning, weld force, and dynamic gun compensation directly impact the quality and integrity of the welds. Manufacturers have long depended on standard torque-controlled guns, which use motor current to reach the target…

In the high-speed and precision-demanding world of manufacturing, any slight error in spot welding can result in costly and time-consuming reworks, and even product recalls. Manufacturers are constantly challenged with maintaining consistent welding quality, dealing with hard-to-weld materials, minimizing maintenance costs, and preventing rapid welding tip wear. The ultimate solution to these problems lies not…

In the evolving world of industrial automation, manufacturers grapple with the need for flexible, efficient, and future-proof solutions that can handle a diverse range of tasks without compromising performance. Enter KUKA’s groundbreaking solution – the KR IONTEC. This robot is setting new standards in the medium payload automation range and addressing manufacturing challenges with superior…

David Fuller, CEO at Artificial, grew up in a pre-pc world; however, his father’s work in the military running war simulations in the California desert meant that he had access to computers in his home. While this may sound like the first line of a best-selling sci-fi novel… it is actually the beginning of a…

Automated end of line solutions are becoming a necessity in the dynamic, high-demand world of personal care products manufacturing. The pressure of escalating output expectations coupled with limited space and frequent changeovers presents a complex puzzle. Labor-intensive processes are becoming obsolete in the face of increasing wages and constant turnover, further fueling the need…
