Joint-developmentSelf-adaptive welding pr ogramming agent
The site faced challenges in meeting the demand for high-end, customized washing machine
frames, wher e traditional manual teach-in pr ogramming for welding r obots was time-consuming
and inefficient. A r einfor cement lear ning-driven self-adaptive pr ogramming agent was deployed
to automate the pr ocess, r educing deviations from 2 to 0.5 millimeters acr oss eight welding r obots.
