EasyArc™ MIG Welding Cart
The foundation of the EasyArc platform, this system pairs the ABB GoFa™ collaborative robot with the Fronius TPS320i MIG welding package in a fully integrated mobile cart:
- Pre-engineered, plug-and-play system
- No programming experience required
- Single 480V power connection
- Ready to weld on arrival
Start producing consistent, repeatable welds in hours — not weeks.
MIG Welding Configuration
Fully Assembled, Ready to Weld.
The EasyArc MIG cart is a pre-engineered, plug-and-play collaborative welding solution. All components are integrated into the cart at MWES — the robot, controller, welder, and tabletop arrive as a single unit. Connect one 480V 3-phase power drop, and you’re ready to start teaching parts.
The collaborative robot’s design and operating speeds allow it to work safely alongside operators in most setups without safety fencing. The cart’s locking-caster design makes it easy to reposition across the shop floor to match where work is happening.

Options & Upgrades
Configure for Your Application.
Robot Arm Upgrade
Upgrade to the ABB GoFa™ 10kg arm with 1620mm reach for heavier payloads and a larger working envelope — required for CMT push/pull and over-the-torch fume extraction setups
Upgrade to the CRx arm series for proven industrial reliability to food-safe collaborative automation — IP67-rated body and wrist for washdown environments, with rounded geometry and no pinch or trap points for safe operation alongside operators.
Welding Package Upgrades
Upgrade from the standard 320A power source to the Fronius TPS400i for heavier-duty welding applications requiring higher amperage output.
Other options available upon request – Contact us about additional options.
Adds Pulse Multi Control software to the MIG power source for improved arc performance and weld quality. Additional software upgrades available upon request.
Aluminum & CMT Welding
Upgrades the standard push wire feed to a Fronius CMT WF60i pull feeder and SB 60i buffer torch hose — improving wire feed performance and weld characteristics, especially for aluminum. Requires 10kg robot.
Seam Tracking & Arc Sensing
Torch Maintenance & TCP
Automatic tabletop torch cleaner with reamer, anti-spatter spray, and wire clipper — all interfaced to robot I/O for hands-free nozzle and tip maintenance during production cycles.
Automatically defines and restores the robot Tool Center Point and torch angle after any disturbance. No manual intervention required to get back to consistent weld position.
Fume Extraction Upgrades
Self-contained fume extraction with over-the-torch source capture, cart mount, and 110V power from the cart’s single power drop. Laser/TIG configurations include a repositionable tabletop nozzle instead. Requires MIG equipment with 10kg+ robot
The most powerful filtration option in the EasyArc lineup — longer filter life than the FE860, built for high-production environments. Requires MIG equipment with 10kg+ robot and a separate power drop.
Weld Positioners
Robot-controlled servo positioner with 8-inch chuck for pipe and flanges. Mounts vertically, at 45°, or horizontally — 100 lb capacity, 0–10 RPM, 500A grounding, safety guarding and scanner included.
Robot-controlled two-axis servo positioner for full part orientation control during welding. Handles up to 1,350 lbs, 0–5 RPM, with safety fencing, scanner, and 500A grounding included.
Work Envelope Expansion
Adds a second Bluco H28 modular table with arc screen between stations — weld one side while loading the other for continuous production uptime.
Manually adjustable linear track with two repeatable pin lock positions per section. Supports multiple sections and multiple carts for maximum coverage flexibility.
Extends the robot’s working envelope by 1.2 meters via a cantilevered rotary boom — operator-adjustable in 45° increments. Combinable with the manual travel track.
