If you’re an operator, mechanical engineers or maintenance worker that has already completed basic welding or operator training, join us for Welding Programming & Operations. Participants will walk away with the skills to operate and perform light maintenance on Acieta FastARC or other robotic welding cells using FANUC Arc Tool Software.
