Advanta Southeast decided to acquire a Cobot Welder unit from Hirebotics to test it out. “When it comes to robotics, it was new for us. The last technology we learned was twenty-five years old. We didn’t have the experience or team to set up. That is why we chose Hirebotics,” Mark explained.
“We literally got our cobot from Hirebotics within two weeks. We were up and running on the day we received it,” he said. For the initial unit, Mark requested that a Hirebotics expert help him. However, once he saw how fast and easy it was to implement Cobot Welder, he knew he could do it himself.
“The main difference between Hirebotics’ Cobot Welder and traditional welding robots is that no programming is required. And the difference between Cobot Welder and manual welding is you can track everything from the app,” Mark added.
Apart from monitoring welding consistency, Advanta Southeast can now track in real-time different metrics, including the number of parts produced within a given period, gas and wire consumption, welder overtime, etc. Access to this data helps the companies make better and more accurate operational decisions.
Mark and the team found the app and Cobot Welder very easy to use. If any issues did arise, they would use the in-app chat function and get support within 5 to 10 minutes. “We have only to request support twice in seven to eight months. And usually, with that, we were back and running within 30 minutes.”
