Comau and Seabery have joined forces to create an innovative training programme for students and workers to practise the skills needed to become qualified and certified robotic welders. The comprehensive and scalable solution is designed to meet the global demand for skilled welding professionals.

Welding skills are growing

The automation of Industry 4.0 is increasing the level of skills needed for welders, yet training on robotic welding is rarely offered in traditional welding training institutes or vocational training centres. Moreover, there is currently no standardised curriculum on robotic welding. Add to this the fact that traditional welding training and practice is expensive and time-consuming and requires dedicated safety equipment. To respond to these challenges, Comau and Seabery now offer a modern, state-of-the-art training method, created with the Soldamatic welding simulator and the e.DO educational robot, which is customisable, flexible and scalable, and whose programmable settings meet almost all professional and training requirements.

The new solution is highly efficient as it allows unlimited training through a simulated training programme that uses augmented reality technology to reproduce a real robot welding environment. It includes a portable and programmable learning operator console plus hundreds of welding procedures and positions to comprehensively train robot operators. The Soldamatic simulator uniquely offers Hyperreal-SIMTM, Seabery's proprietary technology, a multi-sensory training interface with vision, hearing and touch capabilities, and a highly calibrated and parameterised system that creates the most realistic welding training experience in addition to real welding.

The training programme

Available now as a stand-alone training programme or as part of Comau's complete e.DO offering, the new solution is perfect for any training institution thanks to a flexible learning path and cloud-based interface. It is particularly suitable for improving workplace skills, as it can be programmed for almost any welding procedure specification (WPS), enables the use of advanced welding joints and creates robotic welding simulations for almost any position. Soldamatic and e.DO's solution promises to be a benchmark for delivering robot welding training, an accelerator of Industry 4.0 and a step towards closing the global skilled labour gap.
