Railroad car Construction

Large-scale welding robotic systems

High-dynamic robotic, multi-axis automated welding system. KBWELD HDC is a console-type linear-drive system with a robust construction with precision guides. It achieves high speed and accuracy thanks to digital servo-controlled motors. KBWELD HDC6 has a wide range of applications – complex, ribbed beams with slopes, panels, boards, ribbed sections; For straight and circular seams, various building elements, machine housings and more.
