Why Robotic Welding?
Robotic welding has become a critical part of the modern fabrication process. By combining automation with our experienced team and state-of-the-art equipment, we provide clients with:
- Precision & Repeatability: Robotic welds are incredibly consistent, which means fewer defects and tighter tolerances.
- Efficiency: Robots don’t fatigue—so your project can move faster, especially in high-volume jobs.
- Improved Safety: Robotic systems reduce the need for human exposure to heat, fumes, and other hazardous conditions.
- Lower Cost Over Time: Faster production and fewer reworks help reduce overall project costs.
Our Robotic Welding Capabilities
Our robotic welding cell is integrated into a full-service fabrication shop, which means we’re not just automating—we’re also designing, cutting, forming, and finishing under one roof. We use advanced robotic arms capable of handling a variety of welding processes and metal types. Services include:
- Robotic MIG (GMAW) Welding
- Robotic TIG (GTAW) Welding (for thinner gauge materials or specialty metals)
- Repeatable Production Welding
- Complex Multi-Part Assemblies
- High-Volume Component Manufacturing
We also support robotic welding as part of broader custom fabrication builds, helping reduce cost and lead time on repeated elements like brackets, frames, guards, and structural supports.
Materials We Weld Robotically
Thanks to our modern robotic welder and material handling systems, we can process a wide range of metals, including:
- Carbon Steel
- Stainless Steel
- Aluminum
- Galvanized Steel
- Cast Iron (in certain applications)
Whether you’re building something for industrial use or public infrastructure, our team can guide you on the best welding approach based on your material and project needs.
