Welding Cell Increases Quality and Production

brinley hardy robotic welding cell
Brinly-Hardy was founded in 1839 and since then have fabricated parts for their own line of agriculture products, as well as, agriculture products for John Deere. Brinly-Hardy is no stranger to robotic welding, they have been using robots since the mid 90’s, however as robotic welding technology advanced, the need for updated robotics became apparent. Rob Leasor, Brinly-Hardy’s Production Manager took some time to talk with us about the advantages robotic welding provides his fabrication process. Read More »

New Advances in CO2 Gas Metal Arc Welding

otc daihen logo
In the United States, the standard shielding gas used in gas metal arc welding (GMAW) is generally a 75/25 percent argon (Ar)/carbon dioxide (CO2) gas mixture. Argon is a relatively expensive gas. A less costly weld grade CO2 gas as a replacement for Ar/CO2 mixtures is used for welding applications in Asian countries including Japan, China, and Korea. In Japan, the use of a CO2 shielding gas has all but replaced the typical Ar/CO2 mixture. Read More »

Robotic Welding Cell Cuts Production Time In Half

Welding Cell Cuts Production Time In Half

Advanced Cutting Systems started in 1992 as a waterjet cutting shop primarily processing foam and fiberglass. As the business grew, so did the need for more fabrication equipment including; 5 –axis waterjets, press brakes, laser cutting, and in February of 2008, a robotic welding cell. Kevin Koenig, President of Advanced Cutting Systems took some time to answer a few questions about his latest piece of equipment, a robotic welding cell.

Robotic Welding Arms

OTC Daihen’s robotic welding arms are used for any CO2, MAG, MIG, TIG, and air plasma cutting application. All robots are Windows NT-based and operate on a CAN bus interface, which provides the highest degree of control and data monitoring possible.

a2-b4 rototic welding arm

Almega AII-B4

The AII-B4 arc welding robot represents the newest in robotic innovations. Sporting a unique design with a through-arm coaxial cable, this robot is highly versatile at welding in confined spaces or complicated fixtures. The coaxial cable of the AII-B4 also helps improve wire feeding, which helps improve overall weld quality.

  • Faster Speed – 20% faster than AX model
  • Through-arm coaxial cable
  • Quick, easy maintenance design
  • 4kg







a2-b4l rototic welding arm

Almega AII-B4L

The AII-B4L arc welding robot represents the newest in robotic innovations. Sporting a unique design with a through-arm coaxial cable, this robot is highly versatile at welding in confined spaces or complicated fixtures, and has a longer total reach than the AII-B4. The coaxial cable of the AII-B4L also helps improve wire feeding, which helps improve overall weld quality.

  • Cable Built In – Dedicated for arc welding
  • Designed for Welding – Cable management standard
  • 4kg payload







a2-v6 rototic welding arm

Almega AII-V6

The AII-V6 is OTC DAIHEN’s newest standard arc welding robot. The AII-V6, like its predecessor AX-V6, supports most welding applications and is one of our most popular products

  • Versatile – GMAW, TIG, and Plasma Cut
  • Faster Speed – 40% faster than AX models
  • Dedicated Design – Best fit with Daihen welding machines
  • 6kg Payload






a2-v6l rototic welding arm

Almega AII-V6L

The AII-V6L shares many of the same features as the AII-V6 arc welding robot, and additionally features a longer arm for increased reach and is ideal for working with large fixtures. And like the other AII Series robots, the AII-V6L also features individual servo shock sensors on each AIIis to prevent damage to robot.

  • Versatile – GMAW, TIG, and Plasma Cut
  • Faster Speed – 40% faster than AX models
  • Long Reach – 2006mm/79 inches
  • 6kg Payload
