| View in browser November 2023 Newsletter Quick Start Guide to Cobot Welding   Cobots are designed to be user-friendly and accessible, even to individuals without a robotics or programming background. Unlike traditional industrial robots (IRs), cobots offer features such as hand guiding and intuitive programming, making them more approachable.   This accessibility extends to cobot welding applications, where the user's competence as a welder is more critical than their robotics expertise. At Power/mation, we are committed to helping operators, engineers, and welders quickly adapt to working with our cobots. READ THE GUIDE → In-Stock Doosan Cobots   Have end-of-year budget to spend?
