Welding and laser cutting
Small batches, changing parts, qualified welders ever harder to find. A welding cobot or a robot-guided laser head brings repeatability and continuity even to make-to-order production.
Our welding and laser cutting products
Fortek supports you in choosing the robot, the torch or working head, the clamping fixtures and the safety measures, coordinating the technology partners needed to deliver a working, fully documented cell.
We make welding repeatable even when batches are small and parts change.
Every joint tells the story of a process: material, thickness, accessibility, positioning tolerances. Before talking about robots, we assess the part, the fixtures and the production flow. Paths are taught by hand-guiding the cobot and recalled in seconds at each job changeover: so even small runs can be automated.
Technology that fits what you need to do.
The part
before the robot
We analyse joints, materials, thicknesses and tolerances to understand which operations are worth automating and with which technology.
- MIG/MAG and TIG welding
- Laser cutting and marking
- Clamping fixtures and positioners
Simple programming,
consistent results
Hand-guided programming and dedicated interfaces cut setup times: the skilled operator passes their know-how on to the robot.
Safety and
commissioning
Fumes, radiation, shielding, work areas: we assess the risks and define the necessary safeguards, right through to commissioning and training.
More robotics solutions
Palletising
Robots, vertical axes, gripping systems and dedicated software make it possible to meet different requirements for load, height and productivity.
Pick and place
Cobots, grippers, vacuum and vision systems can be combined to meet a wide range of picking and placing requirements.
Machine tending
Machine tending is one of the most natural applications for collaborative robotics, especially when you want to automate repetitive operations without overhauling the existing process.
Material handling and intralogistics
Autonomous mobile robots and robotic pallet jacks automate part of these flows while staying far more flexible than systems tied to fixed routes.
