Novarc Technologies Inc. has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Yaskawa America, Inc. (Motoman Robotics Division) to bring Novarc,Äôs AI-powered adaptive welding intelligence platform to the Yaskawa robotic platform.
The agreement signifies a strategic partnership of Novarc's Physical AI capabilities and welding intelligence with Yaskawa,Äôs industrial automation and robotic expertise.
,ÄúWe are excited to expand our collaboration with Yaskawa, implementing our leadership in industrial Physical AI within some of the world,Äôs most demanding welding environments," said Soroush Karimzadeh, CEO of Novarc. ,ÄúBy integrating our Physical AI platform, NovAI, with Yaskawa's world-class robotic solutions, we are charting a path toward autonomous, high-precision manufacturing that fundamentally elevates what robotic systems can achieve on the shop floor.,Äù
Through the MoU, Novarc,Äôs NovAI Autonomy will be integrated with Yaskawa 6-axis robots to accelerate the adoption of high-throughput, AI enabled welding cells. This capability tackles common production variations like misalignments, tacks, and fit-up variations to significantly reduce rework, overwelding, costly grinding, and scrap. Integration of NovHub and Yaskawa welding analytics will enable Enterprise Welding Intelligence by bringing true Industry 4.0 visibility to welding operations. It will turn siloed robotic cells into a connected data network, driving end-to-end traceability across the entire production cycle.
,ÄúYaskawa is dedicated to driving innovation and efficiency across heavy fabrication and industrial sectors,,Äù said Doug Burnside, Executive Vice President, Yaskawa America, Inc. ,ÄúThrough this partnership, we are proud to deepen our engagement with Novarc to incorporate their Enterprise Welding Intelligence into our robotic platforms, providing customers with vision automation and adaptive welding that will provide enhanced precision to our customers in the structural steel, heavy equipment, data center, agricultural, mining, and modular construction industries.,Äù
