In an attempt to improve the welding industry, Miller Electric Mfg. LLC -a global manufacturer of arc welding products- and Novarc Technologies -an AI robotics company specializing in designing and manufacturing automated welding solutions- have announced their collaboration. The partnership aims to impact the welding industry with artificial intelligence (AI) and is set to drive advancements in automated welding for fabricators, contract manufacturers, and more.
Together, Miller and Novarc will innovate and deliver adaptive welding solutions powered by AI as part of the Miller Copilot collaborative welding line. These solutions will not only help combat the current skilled labor shortages in the industry but also help welders by providing enhanced welding capabilities for part-to-part and fit-up variation challenges.
“Miller and Novarc’s partnership will usher in a new era of welding automation solutions, giving welders access to next-generation AI-powered software on flexible, affordable, and easy-to-use robots,” said Nate Leiteritz, group president at Miller Electric.
The combined capabilities of Miller and Novarc in AI-powered automated welding systems are expected to help customers automate tasks that could not be automated before and increase the ROI of automated welding for operations.
“This partnership between Miller and Novarc allows us to combine our expertise and pioneer new frontiers in automated welding technology together. Ultimately, our collaboration will pave the way for the creation of next-generation AI-based cobot solutions that would benefit all in welding automation,” added Soroush Karimzadeh, co-founder and CEO of Novarc.
