With the increasing need to ensure quality, reliability and economic efficiency in the automotive industry, the need for automated and robotized manufacturing is also growing. Revoz d.d. has more than 500 robots in the body assembling and welding shop alone. Proper handling of robots and other equipment used in manufacturing facilities is of great importance in terms of both employee safety and efficiency of manufacturing process. The aim of the thesis is to describe the course of planning and implementation of a new robotic cell in the company, which will be used for training employees in the field of robotics, point welding and safety management of the robotic manipulators.
In the introduction I will describe the automotive industry and the use of robots, the design of a new robotic training cell and the development of its electrical plan. In the following chapters I will describe the hardware, software, and electrical equipment used, with a special emphasis on safety. In the final part I will present the use of the robotic training cell and describe how the test application, which simulates the welding of the car body in manufacturing, works.
