The Welding Programming & Operations course trains operators, technicians, engineers, and programmers on FANUC welding robot operation and programming. Participants learn robot setup, teach pendant use, payloads, backups, tool and user frames, weld procedures, and ramping techniques. The course covers creating, editing, and executing arc welding programs, along with macros, arctool setup, weld process schedules, and weave schedules for complete operational proficiency.
