Integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Robotic Welding
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are being adopted in almost all industries, including the welding industry. By leveraging AI, welding systems can be made smarter and adaptable. Some of the key areas where AI integration is beneficial are weld defect detection, adaptive welding, and path planning. One of the key factors in the welding process is ensuring quality control. Defects in the welded area lead to high risks in the overall strength and safety of the final product. Integration of AI and ML, along with advanced vision systems, can be used for defect detection in real-time. This technology can be used to detect various types of defects, such as cracks, incomplete welding, and porosity. In addition, as this technology continuously gathers data from the system in real-time, AI and ML can learn and improve the process by analyzing real-time and historical data.

Another area where AI can be beneficial is adaptive welding. As of now, most of the welding factors, such as joint geometry, current, voltage, and travel speed, are adjusted manually. By adopting AI technology, all these welding factors can be optimized by the technology in real-time. Owing to the factors mentioned above, many technology providers and robotic welding cell manufacturers are coming up with innovative solutions for the AI-integrated robotic welding system. For instance, In July 2024, Novarc Technologies launched an intelligence robotic system, NovEye Autonomy Gen 2. This robotic welding system is integrated with AI computer vision technology, which provides adaptive welding features. Automation in robotic welding is expected to bring new trends to robotic welding systems, ultimately increasing the demand for AI-integrated robotic welding cells in the near future.
