Top 5 Engineering Jobs of The Future - 1. Place - Robot programmer

Top 5 Engineering Jobs of The Future (and the Engineering Degree to get) Engineering jobs in robotics, AI & Algorithm Engineering are changing the future and creating a brand new "Industrial Revolution".

3D Fanuc Robot plasma cutting for thick pipes

Manually cutting and preparation for welding thick-walled pipes is a really heavy process. In the case of combining two pipes cutting tolerance will be very important.

Special for this process is the robot-based system brings mostly benefits and flexibility. With a two-steps process, you can cut at the first step only hole in the pipe and in the second step you bring the cutting contour to the right form.

When you proceed to cut with additional oxygen, then you will be also able to weld the pipes without additional mechanical removing of upper film after plasma cutting.

Which cobot is more safe ???

Each producer of industrial robots and also many new companies trying to win a piece of the market for cobots. The Idea about a safe robot goes through many heads.

The first success of Universal robots shows then a cobot can be a good alternativity for common industrial robot. Unfortunately mostly cobots were sold not for industrial projects but for laboratories and exhibitions.

First couple industrial projects already shoes then a solution with cobots not really safe and needs a special risk assessment and an end-user cannot install a cobot without safety like it was desired before.
The dream about safe robot lives more in our mind. The peoples are not ready to see industrial robots without safety and hope to find a safe solution based on slow speed and torque control.
Independent of torque and speed one robot can set up damage for a man with a gripper or with the part in the gripper. When you move a knife in the body of humans slowly or even faster then it makes no sense.

Why industrial robot is better as CNC machine

When you think to buy a CNC machine then you can look for alternative possibilities like Milling Industrial Robot. Here are the benefits of this solution:

The price for milling robot is more as double cheaper as CNC machine with the same parameters

Huge working area available with possibilities to use two or three different working tables for milling

Mostly you will get water-cooled spindle with 24.000 till 36.000 rpm without huge add price

Depend on the payload of the robot you can work with hard materials like stone or steel.

Your real accuracy will be about 0,5 till 1 mm. This value is mostly enough good for many applications.

You can create a milling program in G-code as usually.

Robot likes also play poker

Do you look for the right partner for poker? Not only peoples but also robots can be a good players.
A robot plays always right and don't have any cards in the wrong pocket.

Also in case of restrictions from the laws, it's not poker but only play machine.

You can play together so much and so long as you like. Only emotions you cannot see from the play partner.

How to do robot safe for training

When you prepare training for robot programming you have to think also about safety for participants.
For sure you can install safety fences and keep a distance till robot. But you cannot train teaching of points outside of the robot cell.
During manual programming always is an industrial robot programmer in the cell. It can be dangerous for the programmer and also for the robot too.
As a possible solution, you can use a special cover, which will be installed on the surface of a robot and make the programming process much safer.
This cover is different depending on the robot supplier and you can get it in different colors. So you can protect robots, grippers and also peoples during training.
