Welding Robot for Structural Steel



Voortman Steel Machinery has launched the Voortman Fabricator welding system for structural steel. This system is capable of producing the most common steel construction profiles-plates, angle irons, tubes, U-profiles, crane runway consoles-and is the first welding robot that can both fit and weld, the company reported. As a solution to the shortage of welders, this robot allows for fully automated production of welding. Welders who perform this craftmanship can now focus on specialized welding projects instead. The welding process will no longer be interrupted, allowing for better planning and consistent quality.

To further optimize production, Voortman Steel Machinery has also introduced DIGI-WELD, a software solution that fully automates the welding preparation process. This saves time with its analysis and correction of 3D models for welding information in just one click.

"The Voortman Fabricator can run 24 hours per day while delivering consistent quality," said Henk Maassen van den Brink, Sales Director at Voortman Steel Machinery. "DIGI-WELD makes the Fabricator the most accessible welding system in the steel industry."

The Fabricator is easy to integrate into any workshop and does not take up much space, making it suited for companies facing the shortage of skilled welders. It allows welders to focus on more challenging and specialized welding work while the Fabricator handles repetitive and heavy welding tasks.
