5 TRAITS YOU SHOULD LOOK FOR A WELDING ROBOT OPERATOR
1. Experience
He/ She would know that the correct welding sequence ensures integrity of material, realize the upstream processes can possibly affect welding, and quickly define out-of-spec welds with his/ her
quick glance at the final point.
2. Ownership
Hire workers that feel responsible for the machine they operate
3. Initiative
Willingness of a worker to step forward for quality is more important with complex welding positions. The operator for robotized TIG welding has to maintain tungsten electrode, ensure appropriate wire
guide positioning, and verify the parts sit in the fixtures as designed.
4. A 3-D mindset
It will be great if a welding operator has a 3-D visualization. He/ She can see how a robotic arm moves around a work-piece, and figure the best way to attack the hard-to-reach area
5. Familiarity with computers
Experience and familiarity with computers help a welder transition to the role of robotic welding cell operator. Those skills allow an operator to jump into all the benefits which advanced control software
has to offer.

In any sector and especially in manufacturing, international qualifications are a very efficient way of innovating the required training and respective qualifications.
With the input from the network of countries we have in EWF, we are able to pinpoint the actual skills needed in metal additive manufacturing and develop an international qualification based in the EWF quality assurance system
Workers in the 30 member countries of EWF will have access to harmonised qualifications in metal additive manufacturing endorsed by stakeholders

This international qualification, with procedures forrecognition of existing formal or informal skills and basedon a modular structure, will encourage the acquisitionof new skills in manufacturing.
Excellence in manufacturing requires training andqualification which needs to follow new approachesto prepare industry for the next-generation innovationand to support its growth.
