Vidir Solutions is a leading manufacturer and worldwide supplier of vertical automated material handling carousels and display systems. Our highly versatile product lines offer industry solutions for construction, retail, medical, warehouse, government, automotive, printing, and manufacturing.

About Vidir:

Develop program for robot welder to generate it’s own weld and movement code based on a 3D CAD model with some weld symbology input. Similar to a CNC mill, or laser cutter, the welder would be able to generate travel paths and weld on/off inputs based on the 3D info of the design.

Project Objectives:

Identify joints requiring welding from the 3D CAD part
“See” the part in real time on the welding table
Accept manual input on weld size and weld type from operator
Perform accurate weld on part for production line

What THEY bring to the table:

Welding expertisee
Supply of accurate parts to be welded together
Creation of required jigs and tables, etc.
Understanding of the market requirements in a 1 piece flow welding environment

What YOU will bring to the table:

Creation of the program that would take a general welding robot and remove the requirement for manual input into the coding through either the pendant or by manually moving the welding torch (as in the case of a cobot) and replace it with the ability for the robot to program the weld path on its own.
Need programming or coding expertise
