Hubert KOSLER

Dr. Kosler’s work concerns the design and engineering of heavy-duty welding automation and industrial robot welding solutions, including robot cells and robot lines. He is involved in the management of projects to manufacture robot cells and robot lines. He was active in establishing and setting up the Solution Centre, a unit for robot cell production. He helped establish a new robot factory in Kočevje by setting up an engineering department and tool shop with CAD/CAM support to design and produce jigs and grippers. His skills include implementing lean production, developing a laser triangulation vision system for the adaptive tracking of welding seams and 3D scanning, and integrating industrial robots for needs in adaptive remote laser process applications.

Robotic application for laser welding of low series products. The process is performed by an industrial robot YASKAWA MC2000 equipped with a laser triangulation platform MOTOSense 3.0 and a laser welding system TruDisc 4002.
