Abstract
The article gives examples of robotization, automation and mechanization of welding and related processes based on mechanical welding equipment (MWE). The composition of complexes and installations applied for welding or surfacing processes includes both serial models of MWE, as well as specially designed ones, taking into account individual features of the product design and technological peculiarities of its manufacture. The wide range of solved problems and the possibility of the domestic manufacturer of MWE to design and manufacture modern high-tech complexes and installations for welding and surfacing are shown. The possibility of designing special MWE for new welding and surfacing technologies in the composition of robotic complexes and automatic installations is noted. 9 Ref., 6 Figures.
