Arc and laser welding machines
Automatic, turn-key MIG (GMAW), TIG (GTAW), plasma and laser welding machines. Each one is designed around the part: joint access, fixturing and repeatable welds on every run.
MIG, TIG and plasma
Single-head machines suit lighter fabrication such as small frames and brackets. Dual-head machines weld both sides of larger parts such as axle housings at once. Multi-station and rotary head styles handle high volumes and round parts.
Laser welding
Laser can replace TIG, MIG, resistance and electron beam welding in many jobs, for both spot and seam welds. Systems are set up for quick program and fixture changes without major retooling.
Automation built in
Arc systems can integrate robotic torch handling, programmable weld sequencing and automated fixture control.
Built for the part
Specialized welding machines
Rotary table welders
Heavy-duty tables for automotive wheels, large off-road wheels, cylindrical housings, shafts, axles and flanged pipe sections. 360 degree part rotation with programmable weld parameters.
Welding lathes
Rotate long or round workpieces during welding, such as washer and dryer tubs, pipe, cylinders and pressure vessels. Compatible with TIG, MIG, MAG and plasma sources.
Laser applications
Battery modules that need deep, narrow welds with little heat. Aerospace housings with sealed joints. Medical and electronic assemblies that need clean, repeatable welds.
Rebuilds
Older arc welding equipment can be retrofitted with new controls, new weld sources and replaced assemblies, then tested before it ships.
Common questions
When does laser welding make sense?
When you need high speed and low distortion. It often replaces MIG, TIG, resistance or electron beam welding, depending on the material and tolerance.
Are these standard machines?
No. Every machine is custom designed for the application, including the fixtures, weld path and process variables.
What if a new machine is over budget?
Ask about remanufacturing or rebuilding a used machine. Stock changes often, so request a quote to see what is available.
