Automation for arc welding with KUKA

KUKA offers a wide range of automation components, function packages and cells as standard products that are quickly available. They can be combined in a modular fashion and flexibly adapted to specific requirements.

Always one step ahead: Arc welding with KUKA

In addition to conventional welding functions, KUKA – as a thought leader and trailblazer – offers permanent security of investment through the smart capability of integration into the digital and networked world of production. The result is greater effectiveness and flexibility throughout the entire value chain for industrial welding.

Welding robots, positioners and welding cells:
standardized modular components that can be ideally combined

KUKA offers ideal solutions for all welding automation requirements – from individual arc welding robots with high path accuracy to preconfigured welding cells and fully-automated welding systems. A wide range of positioners and welding technology software as well as linear units round out the portfolio for perfectly coordinated overall packages.
