Remote Advanced Supervision and Diagnostics of Robotized Welding Cell
Welding equipment and other components included in the robotized or automated welding station are now usually equipped with advanced control. It not only enables effective exchange of the information between components of the system, but also allows to implement a very efficient hardware and software diagnostic tools, which is not commonly utilized, especially in smaller installations. The use of communication controllers and devices connected to the global network shall enable the realization of such monitoring in remote mode and with the use of modern ICT solutions the effectiveness of such monitoring will be greatly increased. Device operators and technologists will gain the ability to monitor remotely the status of these devices as well as the processes even in the real time [. This article presents a practical solution of implementing remote monitoring to the welding installation with the use of WEB2.0 services.
