Cobot Welder
Purpose-built robotic welding for your shop floor
A collaborative welding robot that works alongside your team. No safety caging, no programming expertise, no long integration timelines. Set up in hours, teach a weld path by hand-guiding the torch, and press start.
MIG WELDING — ON THE FLOORWill it run your parts
Most shops rule themselves out too early
Too big. Too round. Too varied. Too hard to weld. Your work doesn't have to fit a robot's limitations.
Too big for a cell
An overhead gantry carries the cobot across work too large to bring into a fixed cell. The part stays where it is.
Round, long, or awkward
A rotary kit turns pipe and tube under the torch for continuous welds. A headstock and tailstock hold long round work between centers.
Too many parts, too little repetition
Teaching a part takes minutes, and the part is saved. When that order comes back, the setup is already done.
Fit-up is never perfect
Seam tracking follows the joint in real time, correcting for gaps and misalignment as it goes. Your parts don't have to be perfect.

Water-Cooled Torch Kit
A water-cooled MIG torch in place of the air-cooled standard, for high-amperage, high-duty-cycle welding
Rotary Kit
Rotates round parts under the torch for continuous welds on pipe and tube
Secondary Operator Button
A second start button so one station keeps running while you load the other
Fixture Table
A second table for staging and fixturing the next part while the current one runs
Linear Rail
Extends the cobot's envelope along the part; standard modules add length
COMING SOON
Index Table
Rotates fixtured parts between positions so the cobot works one side while you load the other
COMING SOON
Overhead Gantry
Overhead travel that carries the cobot across parts too large to bring to it
COMING SOON
Headstock + Tailstock
Holds a long assembly at both ends and turns it, bringing each weld or cut into position without a crane

The app
Your welders teach it. Your welders run it.
Teach, run and monitor parts from the Beacon app.
- Teach a path by hand-guiding the torch with the Smart Puck
- Parts are step-by-step instructions your team already understands
- Run and monitor from any phone, tablet, or browser
- Start with one; Beacon scales to your whole operation

You have questions, we have answers
Who is cobot welding for?
Fabrication shops, contract manufacturers, and OEMs that need reliable welding output without the cost and complexity of traditional robotic cells. If you're short on skilled welders, fighting inconsistent quality, or turning down work, cobot welding fills the gap. It's especially effective for shops mixing short-run and repeat jobs, since you reprogram in minutes, not days.
What kind of ROI can the Cobot Welder provide?
Depending on your production factors, cobots can 2–10× your fabrication productivity. Most shops see 2–4× the output, saving significant labor hours and freeing your team for the work that matters most.
See customer stories →Can I weld aluminum with the Cobot Welder?
Yes. Just like MIG welding aluminum manually, a few settings and accessory adjustments let you produce high-quality aluminum welds with the Cobot Welder.
Will it weld my parts?
The Cobot Welder handles most repetitive welding work, but part suitability depends on size, material, and joint access. Start with the parts gallery of brackets, exhaust, sheet metal, and weldments other shops already run. Then bring your parts to a demo and we'll assess your application directly.
See parts we've run →How fast can I weld with the Cobot Welder?
The cobot moves at up to 39 inches per second, and welds at up to 90 inches per minute. That's far faster than a human can weld, with extremely low heat input and maximum productivity.
Can I replace manual TIG welding?
Yes. Customers have achieved TIG-quality welds using MIG processes. One shop went from 2–5 inches per minute hand-TIG to 20 inches per minute, clearing their backlog in a few weeks.
Read their story →Do I need to buy upfront?
No. After a demonstration you can enter the rent-to-own program and fully commit once you're ready, validating the cobot's performance on your own floor first. Typical lead time is about two weeks from purchase order.
