Frequently Asked Questions
What is “cobot” technology and why do we use it?
Metal-Tech Industries uses a range of advanced technology, including MIG and TIG welding machines, computer numerical control (CNC) technology, and advanced robotic or “cobotic” technology.
Cobots, or collaborative robots, are a type of machine that can be programmed to perform tasks safely and efficiently alongside humans in a workplace. They deliver a wide range of benefits, including their ability to produce consistent, high-quality work while minimising the risk of workplace hazards or injuries.
What are MIG welding and TIG welding?
Both forms of welding, MIG and TIG welding involve joining separate metals together with an electrical arc or current, and the use of shielding gas to protect the weld area. However, the MIG welding torch contains an electrode, or electrical conductor, that is consumable, meaning the rod inside is continuously regenerated to fuse the two metals.
TIG welding, on the other hand, involves a torch with a non-consumable, fixed electrode made out of tungsten. The process is completed using a handheld welding rod with a filler material.
What are the main benefits of MIG and TIG welding?
MIG welding can be used on a wide range of metallic products, including mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminium. This form of welding involves a shielding gas that offers greater penetration, making it well-suited to thicker materials. It also offers faster welding speeds and is well-suited to high-volume production.
TIG welding, on the other hand, is best suited to thinner materials, including stainless steel and aluminium. It involves the use of a hand-held filler rod that creates greater control and precision, meaning the final finish is often cleaner and more visually appealing.
Benefits of Welding
Precision
Welding is a fabrication process in which metals or other materials are joined and fused using both hot and cool temperatures. Skilful welders carefully manage this process to ensure the materials are manipulated with precision and to each client’s exact specifications.
Speed
Experienced welders can deliver precision, accuracy and quality without ever compromising on speed. Large workloads and tight deadlines are managed with the use of high-performance technology and machinery, such as our cutting-edge cobot MIG welding machine.
Versatility
From welding machines to grinding bays and metal cutting saws, there is a tool or technology to suit every welding project, no matter how simple or complex. Welders serve a wide range of industries, from construction and electronics to automotive, aerospace, shipping, and rail.
