Arc and Laser Welding Process Flexibility
Welding Automation Doesn't Have to Be All or Nothing
Will you still be welding the same parts the same way in six months? A year? Five years?
A rigid machine forces you to commit to a welding process now. A flexible machine grows and adapts to your needs.
That’s why we created the AP300. Integrate a turnkey arc welding solution and add laser capability later. Or start with laser welding and change to MIG to address new part designs.
Either way, our welding automation team is prepared to offer you a solution that meets you where you are.
Reliable, acessible welding automation.
Laser welding is powerful, but it's not a real-world fit for every production line or shop floor. Part tolerancing, material quality, and gap variations can make arc welding a more reliable and consistent process.
Sound familiar? If it does, or if your operation just isn't ready for a laser system yet, then we are happy to offer a powerful robotic arc welding solution and decades of experience to go with it. You can always trade up to a laser welding configuration in the future.
More tolerant of variation: Automated arc welding is more tolerant of fit-up gaps and joint variation, reducing upstream production demands.
Increased heavy-duty flexibility: Arc welding is often the best process for thicker materials, heavy structural work, or designs that require wider weld seams.
Increased accessibility: Robotic arc configurations come with reduced initial costs and more straight-forward integration.
Familiarity: For manufacturers with robotic arc welding experience, configuration and implementation is easier and more familiar.
Power. Precision. Productivity.
Laser welding offers the speed, precision, and process control that enables the fabrication of a wide variety of cutting edge products. From aerospace components to household appliances and from small part runs to serial production, laser welding is a high-quality process that delivers significant ROI.
Not sure if you’re ready for laser welding? With decades of experience in arc and laser welding automation, we’re here to make integrating a laser solution painless, from process development to technical support.
Speed and productivity: laser welding offers rapid weld penetration and unmatched travel speeds.
Supports advanced automation: Integrates with machine vision to reduce part holding and fixturing complexity.
Precision and quality: Produces narrow welds with low heat input, improving consistency while minimizing thermal distortion and secondary finishing processes.
