Incredible Collaborative Welding Robot - 500 Brackets Daily! We used Employee Genius!!!

A product born out of necessity!
On our journey of eliminating waste and encouraging employee genius this is what can happen!
We needed a automated welding solution, but faced high price quotes and long lead times so we designed our own!
Designed a built for our own needs, which now has become a product.
All made possible by our Lean Thinking! Thank you Paul Akers, 2 second Lean 😊😎

Jack you are an ABSOLUTE INSPIRATION!!!! A natural leader. You are making the future possible.

[@JackBusseyUK]

Thanks so much for your support 🙏😊

[@justinw2141]

As a welder I could double your output....as a human I would quit the next day because I'd be bored. Pretty cool setup.

[@chaos_monster]

I really hope that the free'd time is used for those who want to learn welding (to become experts), that they can use parts of the time freed up to learn. Otherwise you will get less and less people actually able to do the craft, for when you need their experience and knowledge

[@montanaharkin]

Or the worker can now be more useful with more complex tasks or using their brain to solve other problems rather than performing dull tasks all day.

[@paul-akers]

Jack, your communication skills continue to amaze me. You are a pro at the highest level yet when you started you were a novice this is a clear indication of the power of continuous improvement. Amazing product, amazing communication, extremely valuable from an educational standpoint. Thank you. I learned a lot.

[@JackBusseyUK]

Thanks Paul 😊 your support helped me achieve this! It was a Lean production to! Video shot and edited in 2 hours with no script or planning! Zero Waste 📹😉👍👍

[@paul-akers]

@@JackBusseyUK mind-boggling keep up the amazing work you will improve the world and your life simultaneously

[@hideakipage8151]

It doesn't surprise me that you and your team are producing such amazing tech. I was blown away by your can do attitude when I visited you factory. We need more of this in the UK.

[@JackBusseyUK]

Thanks Hideaki! We will always keep pushing forward

[@TheRealMrLaserCutter]

I can see the costs of these coming down in the near future. Then you could have one operator feeding multiple machines. That would increase the value of the worker and reduce boredom. You could also have a auto loader, then it could work 24/7!

[@ValleyViewIndustriesLtd]

Jack! 10/10 video and product! I think I will need to order one to Canada sometime in the future!

[@JackBusseyUK]

Thanks Nick!! 😎😊

Jack, what an awesome product, your team has done an amazing job

Thanks for your support as always Phill!

This is unbelievably cool! Well done, Jack.

Thanks so much 😎😎

[@DMSparky]

Sweet rig and always cool to see how you’re optimizing. It definitely seems like a no brainer. What I’ll quickly note however, it’s not the quality of the workforce that is dropping, it’s the lack of willingness for businesses to train their employees anymore. Every business wants their employees magically know how to complete every task before they even start. Go look at job ads from our parents days and the amount of ads for technical jobs that said “willing to train, no experience required” might surprise you. That was back in the day when the west still had a strong manufacturing base. I will admit that it seems like there are a lot of people who very difficult to train nowadays and the economics of globalized manufacturing do change the level of efficiency required to remain competitive.

[@JackBusseyUK]

Thanks for the comment! As a business we do actually hire with no experience required, we hire based on attitude not skill generally

[@RichardFortin77]

Super Interesting ! ! !

[@JackBusseyUK]

Many thanks!

[@davidalexander843]

Woooooow.. I had no clue it was this easy and it always scared me. I Desperately need this for manufacturing food processing machinery. Thank you for being a good human and teaching us how simple it can be.

[@JackBusseyUK]

Oh no problem, I plan to make more videos to show how easy it can be! Note not all cobot controls are this easy!

[@Rosshollandslean]

Love this Jack!!!

[@JackBusseyUK]

Thanks Ross!!

[@danielcorston9471]

Just discovered your channel I’m a manufacturing engineer are you hiring? Love the enthusiasm and would love to get involved!!

[@JackBusseyUK]

We're always hiring! 😎😎👍

[@LuftpolsterManu]

awesome video, more of these

[@JackBusseyUK]

What would you like to see?

[@LuftpolsterManu]

@@JackBusseyUK Everything outside of the daily 3s lean videos is good so far. Personally I like detailed videos of one specific process and its optimization.

[@LuftpolsterManu]

Also an overview of your company would be nice. I dont have a full picture yet of what you do even though I watched 10+ videos on your channel.

[@JackBusseyUK]

@@LuftpolsterManu Ok understood I'll make that happen

[@jaapjonkercom]

Hi Jack, looks fantastic! Which robot and software are you using?

[@jaapjonkercom]

Thank you very much Jack!

[@CyberlightFG]

It misses a bottle rack and a removable holder for multiple parts. Really nice programming. Would check the path on very slow setting without turning the current on. Can the robot change the welder settings?

[@JackBusseyUK]

Thanks for the ideas, yes the robot can adjust welder settings

[@CyberlightFG]

YOu may want to visit a car factory for new ideas, if possible

[@JackBusseyUK]

@@CyberlightFG Good idea, thanks👍👍💡

[@biotoi]

Hey, Jack. Very interesting. One question: which cobots you are using? And why this models? We think about and we are not shure about the difference in the software of the cobots manufacturers.

Can this be adapted ? I have laser welding machine

[@JackBusseyUK]

Yes can laser weld although you need a laser spec enclosure, which of course is possible

I'm sure I could help 😎😊

[@2observant]

The successful implementation of robots sure is captivating and beautiful to watch for many reasons, I understand, I also know how the world ends, so I'm not worried, BUT for this, man would quickly have no use, then, nor the robots any use for us as it is very obvious this would be the course - I hope it doesn't require explanation.

[@dionium5462]

How much?

[@JackBusseyUK]

£37k

[@jamessmith5459]

What's the robot called?

[@JackBusseyUK]

We called it Jeff, but it's a Nukeson HanBot

[@turboslag]

Amazing but this sort of thing is taking human jobs, so what happens when all or most manual labour has been replaced with robots? It started with the car industry, that once employed hundreds of thousands, now it's thousands and reducing all the time. So people who are only capable of low skilled jobs can now only find work in call centres, shortly to be replaced with AI, fast food joints, which also go robot, Amazon, same, etc, etc. So very soon, the vast majority of jobs will done by AI and robots and most people won't be able to find work. This means they have no money to spend and buy stuff, so manufacturers won't have any customers. The end.

[@JackBusseyUK]

Thanks 🙏😎 same thing was said when people started to use horse and cart, it's always going to happen, but humans will find a way to make it possible.

[@hippopotamus86]

The solution is to have a universal basic wage that will allow people to enjoy life and do what they want to do, and if they want to earn more money, they can get their education to earn more money with higher paid jobs without having to work a mediocre boring job. Automation is the future and it is beneficial for everyone.

[@turboslag]

@@hippopotamus86 Where does the funding for a ubi come from if no one is earning and paying taxes? Companies also won't exist because no customers, so no tax revenue from them either. We have a circular economy, break the circle and it fails.

[@hippopotamus86]

@turboslag higher taxes on businesses that are befitting from higher output. Also doesn't mean that less people will be employed, it means more higher skilled people for jobs that can't be automated. A job shouldn't exist just to give someone a job.

[@davidpeterjameson7937]

I sell industrial and collaborative robots (like the one in this video), and I can tell you if people are capable of operating a cell phone, they can program these robots. I don't believe that there are people who are "only capable of low skilled jobs". Quite the opposite - low skilled jobs are a waste of human talent and potential. People are amazing, and can do much more than some menial jobs. Barring a medically confirmed mental deficiency, no person should be stuck doing a repetitive task that is dangerous, dull, or downright depressing.

[@mirodilmirzakhmedov9287]

Sugoii. Are you a robot integrator or what?
