3Srobotics Embodied AI Welding Robots

Building steel components are large-sized with strict inspection requirements for critical welds. The rework rate of manual welding remained stubbornly high. 3Srobotics’ reverse modeling brings great convenience: pre-modeling is unnecessary. The workpiece can be welded after scanning on-site. The ground track covers a large working area. After deploying two sets of equipment, we are confident about subsequent mass application.

Sub-assembly is the highest-volume and most repetitive stage in our shipbuilding process. However, diverse component types and frequent product changeovers render traditional teach pendent robots impractical. After deploying 3Srobotics equipment, straight seams, arcs, T-bars and bulb flats can be automatically identified and welded. One operator manages multiple machines, achieving 700–800 meters of welding per day on two shifts. Weld beads outperform manual welding and several welders are saved.

After adopting 3Srobotics intelligent welding robots, continuous multi-layer and multi-pass welding for over 5 consecutive welds is realized. Weld beads at straight sections, corners and wrap-around positions feature consistent and sound formation. The system also delivers excellent performance on multi-layer multi-pass welding of circular arc welds with good weld appearance. Welding quality and productivity are greatly improved. Ordinary operators can run the system, cutting labor costs and reliance on highly skilled welders.

After adopting the 3SRobotics intelligent welding solution, one operator now oversees four machines simultaneously, with robots working over 18 hours a day and stable daily output reaching 600 m. Weld quality is highly consistent, and two-shift production effectively saves 5–6 welders, greatly easing our hiring pressure.

Faced with large workpieces and multi-variety orders, the system quickly switches between recognition, planning and welding tasks. Line rhythm is more stable, the first-pass qualification rate of complex welds is significantly improved, and on-site staff can focus more on quality management.
