Robot operator vs welder-machine operator

Differences between robot operator and welder-machine operator duties and responsibilities

Robot operator example responsibilities.

• Manage aluminum structural/pipe fabrication turnaround: cross-country CGIT/IPB megawatt electrical power conductors.
• Place a series of parts on a series of jigs ultimately leading to a finish part i.e.
• Make sure all GMP's and all company policies are follow in accordance with state and federal law.
• Maintain functionality and quality of parts for medical devices and monitor robotic manufacturing machines.
• Reconfigure robotic equipment to handle differing packaging and materials using both mechanical and electronic controls.
• Calculate dimensions and tolerances using knowledge of mathematics and instruments such as micrometers and vernier calipers.

Welder-machine operator example responsibilities.

• Weld required parts using GMAW, GTAW, and SMAW.
• Require to weld a wide veriety of assemblies, fabricate parts and maintain equipment and fixtures employing GMAW and GTAW techniques.
• Operate the welding robots and do rework with the MIG welder.
• Weld both steel and aluminum pressure tanks for both train and truck air brake systems.
• Dismantle metal assemblies and cut scrap metal, using thermal-cutting equipment such as flame-cutting torches or plasma-arc equipment.
• Position, align, fit, and weld together parts, using jigs, welding torch, and hand tools.
