Advantages to Welding Positioners

Welding positioners provide significant advantages for a wide range of welding applications. Designed for exceptional movement and flexibility, our automated positioners accommodate a broad range of part sizes and geometries. Their precision and control ensure consistently high-quality weld seams.

Additionally, they can tilt, turn, and rotate workpieces 360 degrees as well as lift workpieces vertically. They can consistently hold, arrange, and move workpieces and be deployed for robotic and manual welding applications. Positioners contribute to precision and safety in factory environments that require welding operations. Additionally, they eliminate a danger present for workers and the associated costs.

Welding Positioner Types

MWES utilizes a combination of stock positioners and our custom-built welding positioners. The stock positioners are produced by leaders in the welding industry and our custom-built positioners are scalable to your specific application and requirements.

  • Headstock/Tailstock
  • Drop Center

Extra-large Capacity Positioners

We also offer the extra-large SkyHook two-axis robotic weld positioner, which has a capacity of up to 30,000 kg of parts. This positioner also works with both servo motors and variable frequency drives with external axis control from either robot control systems or PLC control. These options make this positioner easy to integrate into both established and new factory systems. The two-axis motion and continuous rotation options enable several unique capabilities. These extra-large capacity welding positioners can precisely arrange the most significant parts, such as those used in robotic welding, deburring and rough machining.
