Commas e Seabery announce a robotic welding training program for students and workers who want to become qualified and certified robotic welders. A project that combines augmented reality and robotics to facilitate entry into industry 4.0.
Comau and Seabery launch a training course for robotic welding
The automation of Industry 4.0 requires increasingly complex and specliaized skills. But hardly ever courses are held in training institutes robotic welding training. In fact, there is currently no standardized course of study on robotic welding.
Furthermore, learning and practicing requires dedicated safety equipment, which raises the costs for training. Comau and Seabery therefore wanted to launch a modern training method using the Soldamatic welding simulator and the educational robot e.DO.
This way you can use augmented reality technology to reproduce a real robotic welding environment. Includes one portable and programmable learning operator console. Plus hundreds of welding procedures and positions to comprehensively train robot operators.
Also with Hyperreal-SIM, Seabery’s proprietary technology, you can take advantage of a multisensory training interface with sight, hearing and touch capabilities. A highly calibrated and parameterized system, which creates a realistic welding training experience.
Training technology
You can either take advantage of the standalone training program or get it as part of Comau’s comprehensive e.DO offering. That training institutions can leverage by creating a flexible learning path with a cloud-based interface.
Ezio Fregnan, director of Comau’s Academy & Education, explains: “The collaboration with Seabery anticipates future training needs and reflects Comau’s ongoing commitment to developing innovative hands-on training opportunities. Thanks to the effective combination of augmented reality and the e.DO educational robot, we are helping to fill an important skills gap by providing students with the necessary know-how to pursue a career in robotic welding. “
“Soldamatic’s welding training simulation was designed to address the significant global shortage of welders and to attract a new generation of welding students. With Soldamatic simulators in welding laboratories in over 80 countries, robotic welding training was a logical and clear continuation of our patented welding skills training “. said Ignacio Zalvide, Seabery’s Product Management Director.
“Using Comau’s e.DO robot gives us the opportunity to expand our robot welding training solution by partnering with the leader in industrial automation, who is equally passionate about promoting modern, interactive and effective teaching tools. for the younger generations “.
