Cobots are the perfect solution for manufacturers looking to automate their arc welding process. With their ease of use and small footprint, welding cobots can boost productivity and profitability for more operations. The ARC Mate cobots can perform MIG (GMAW), TIG (GTAW), plasma (PAW) or laser welding and offer the same high level of performance and reliability that the FANUC ARC Mate robots are known for.
FANUC has a variety of cobot welding solutions that can provide the perfect solution to your manufacturing operations.
FANUC’s cobots can be used in a number of arc welding process automation applications. By working with FANUC and our Authorized System Integration partners, manufacturers will find that cobot welding increases competitiveness, throughput, and profitability.

Collaborative welding robots — or welding cobots for short — are safety-rated industrial robots that can require little to no safeguarding compared with traditional industrial robots.
Built-in force sensors with adjustable sensitivity thresholds allow our welding cobots to work safely alongside people without the need for expensive guarding, saving space and costs.
According to ISO 10218 part 1 and part 2, there are four main types of cobots: safety monitored stop, speed and separation, power and force limiting, and hand guiding.
Many factors can determine a cobot’s cost. A cobot expert can help you determine the best cobot welding solution tailored to your needs. Additionally, FANUC America has the industry’s largest network of Authorized System Integrators for robotics and arc welding throughout the Americas who can help solve your challenges.
