Abstract
A variety of automation techniques and systems have been studied in the effort
to design a low-cost automated welding system for a tubular aluminium T-joint. The
data findings and expert comments obtained during the exploration of a low-cost
automated welding system for a tubular aluminium T-joint provided valuable insights
into the feasibility and efficacy of different automation methods. These findings are
compared and analysed in relation to previous research or established business
standards to determine their alignment or deviation. The collaborative robot (co-bot)
system was found to be the best option after rigorous consideration and study for this
application. The benefits of robotic automation are combined with the capacity to work
closely with human operators in the co-bot system. The tubular aluminium T-joint may
be precisely and intricately welded thanks to this cooperative technique, ensuring the
best joint alignment and fit-up. The co-bot system is ideally suited for low-cost
automation because of its adaptability to changing welding requirements, ease of
programming, and flexibility. Overall, the co-bot system combines affordability,
accuracy, teamwork, and safety to make it the best choice for the low-cost automated
welding system for a tubular aluminium T-joint.
