Industrial Robot Resistance Welding Applications: Resistance welding with industrial robots involves automating the process of joining metal parts by passing a high electrical current through them, generating heat at the contact points to create a weld. This method is ideal for sheet metal and is widely used in industries requiring high-volume, repetitive tasks. Key applications include:

• Automotive Manufacturing: Robots weld body panels, frames, and structural components, ensuring precision and durability, as seen in car body assembly lines.
• Electronics: Used for assembling small metal parts, providing precise and reliable electrical connections.
• Appliance Manufacturing: Automates sheet metal assembly for appliances, boosting production speed and quality.
• Metal Fabrication: Enhances efficiency in producing metal products like furniture or structural elements with consistent welds.

Robots like those from FANUC or Motoman, often equipped with servo-controlled welding guns, improve speed, repeatability, and quality while reducing labor costs. This application excels in high-production settings, particularly in the automotive sector, where spot welding—a type of resistance welding—is prevalent for joining thin metal sheets.
