Training Course in Robotic Machining
The course is organized over two full days (October 15-16, 2025) and the venue for the course is Grimstad, Norway. The course is structured as a combination of basic theory, robot operation, and practical lab exercises. The practical exercises will cover the following applications; milling, plasma cutting and welding.
No previous robot skills or experience is required. There will be a maximum of 10 participants in each course. Each participant will get hands-on training with several industrial robots and applications.
The course will cover the following subjects:
- Basic theory for using industrial robots, including the most important coordinate frames and transformations
- Use of offline robot simulation
- Generation of toolpaths using CAD/CAM
- Basic robot operation and safety
- Robotic milling
- Robotic plasma cutting
- Robotic welding
October 15th: From 12:00 to 19:00
October 16th: From 08:00 to 16:00
The course will be given by Geir Hovland. He has worked as a robotics engineer, researcher and professor within industry, research and education since the mid 90s. For several years he was also the robotics expert of NFEA (Norwegian Association of Electric and Automatic Control). Additional internal and external resources will be involved in relation to practical exercises.
