Cobot welding in action: real cells, real parts
Short clips and photos from systems we've built and installed, our demo days and exhibitions. No renders, just cobots welding.

Two cobots, one long frame
Two cobots on an overhead gantry weld long steel frames in a customer's plant. Mounted overhead, the arms reach the full length of the part while the floor stays clear for loading.
See the CoboMate Welder →Aluminium, welded the same way every time
Aluminium pulls heat away fast and distorts easily. Double pulse MIG switches between two current levels to control the heat and give the classic rippled bead, and the cobot holds torch angle and travel speed identical on every part.
See the CoboMate Welder →A corner seam in seconds
Fibre laser welding a sheet metal corner seam. The low heat input keeps thin sheet flat, so there's far less grinding and straightening afterwards.
See the CoboMate Laser →One set-up for a long part
A cobot on a linear track welds a long aluminium frame in one set-up. The arm travels along the part instead of the part being moved and re-clamped.
See the CoboMate Welder →The same finish on every part
A PFERD robotic spindle on the CoboMate Grinder takes a weld seam down at constant contact force, so the finish doesn't change with the time of day or who's on shift.
See the CoboMate Grinder →When the part won’t fit in a cell
An RB20 cobot on a magnetic base goes to the part instead: here it's grinding a large steel plate on the shop floor while the team gets on with other work.
See the CoboMate Grinder →Systems we've built
From a single cobot on a fixture table to cobots on an overhead gantry. Every cell is designed around the customer's parts and floor.
Out on the floor
Training days on customer sites, demos in our workshop and our stand at industry exhibitions.
Customer stories from around the world
Watch GripSport and other RBW customers talk about their cobot welding systems.
