Fenceless Drag-to-Teach Cobot Welding Workstation 12kg Payload IP67 MIG TIG

Overview

• • This compact collaborative robotic welding workstation is a turnkey flexible welding cell built around an AUBO six-axis collaborative robot.
• • Each welding workstation combines the cobot arm, an AUBO-CB-iS or AUBO-CB-C control cabinet, welding power source, wire feeder, torch and welding process software in a single package.
• • MIG/MAG, TIG and fibre-laser processes run on the same welding workstation without rebuilding the cell for each job.
• • A 6 kg to 12 kg payload range and 886.5 mm to 1,350 mm reach cover small fixtures as well as larger steel structures.
• • Repeatability of ±0.02 mm to ±0.03 mm keeps torch position stable through long production shifts.
• • IP67 protection and a 36 kg arm allow the cell to move between scattered or space-constrained weld points.
• • Safety is rated to EN ISO 13849-1 PL=d Cat 3 and CE, so the cell can operate without fencing once the site risk assessment approves it.
• • Drag-to-teach programming and a visual welding process package let ordinary welders run the welding workstation after short training.

Advantages

Fenceless Collaboration with Weld-Grade Safety

• • Real-time collision detection stops the cobot arm on contact with an operator or fixture.
• • A power-off anti-drop mechanism holds arm position if the cell loses power.
• • The safety architecture is certified to EN ISO 13849-1 PL=d Cat 3 and CE.
• • The welding workstation can therefore run without fencing once the site risk assessment allows it.
• • Fume extraction and ventilation stay part of the final safety concept for every installation.

Drag-to-Teach Programming in Minutes

• • Operators hand-guide the cobot to the weld start and end points instead of writing code.
• • The visual welding process package converts process parameters into an on-screen interface.
• • Ordinary welders operate the welding workstation after short training, with no robot programmer on site.
• • Stored programs are recalled with one click when a repeat job returns to the welding workstation.

Multi-Process Welding on One Cell

• • MIG/MAG, TIG and fibre-laser welding share the same welding workstation platform.
• • Stable torch attitude and travel speed produce consistent bead geometry on multi-pass welds.
• • ±0.02 mm repeatability supports thin-plate work where heat input must stay controlled.
• • One welding workstation covers steel structure, heavy machinery and mixed-material batches.

Compact and Mobile Deployment

• • The 36 kg arm and compact footprint let one welding workstation move between stations.
• • Magnetic bases, gantries and trusses adapt the cell to existing fixtures and floor conditions.
• • No factory layout modification is needed to install a welding workstation.
• • Scattered weld points and confined cells gain automation without building a fixed line.

Turnkey Path from Manual Welding

• • Cobot, power source, wire feeder, torch and software arrive as one welding workstation package.
• • IP67 protection suits dust, spatter and coolant exposure on a production floor.
• • The welding workstation offsets welder shortages and skill variation shift after shift.

Applications

• • Steel structure fabrication and beam welding
• • Heavy machinery frames and structural components
• • Multi-pass welding on medium and large assemblies
• • Multi-material welding subject to welding procedure qualification
• • MIG/MAG, TIG and fibre-laser welding in one cell
• • Scattered weld points and space-constrained stations
• • High-mix, low-volume production with frequent changeovers
• • Replacement of manual welding where bead consistency must improve

FAQ

What is a compact collaborative robotic welding workstation?

It is a turnkey welding cell that combines an AUBO six-axis cobot, control cabinet, welding power source, wire feeder, torch and process software, so a single welding workstation covers programming, welding and quality control in one footprint.

Which welding processes does the welding workstation support?

The welding workstation supports MIG/MAG, TIG and fibre-laser welding, and the process package stores the parameters for each job for one-click recall.

Does the welding workstation need a safety fence?

The cell is certified to EN ISO 13849-1 PL=d Cat 3 and CE with real-time collision detection and power-off anti-drop, so it can run fenceless when the site risk assessment, fume control and ventilation allow it.

What payload and reach are available?

Payload classes are 6 kg and 12 kg, with 886.5 mm reach on the i5, 1,350 mm on the i10 and a 1,300 mm series figure; confirm the model mapping in writing before ordering a welding workstation.

How long does delivery take?

Lead time is about 60 days for one set, and larger quantities or customized welding workstation configurations are quoted case by case.

Can the welding workstation be customized?

Yes. Drawing-based, sample-based and full customization cover workpiece dimensions, welding process, fixture interfaces, cycle time and station layout.
