CRP welding robots are designed for demanding industrial welding tasks, including arc welding, laser welding and collaborative welding. The platform supports integration with welding power sources, positioners, external axes and linear tracks, allowing the robot cell to be adapted to both compact workstations and larger automated welding systems.
Whether the task is small-part welding, structural steel, sheet-metal production or medium- and thick-plate work, CRP provides a broad range of robot options and welding-oriented software functions to help achieve stable, repeatable and efficient production.
CRP’s welding platform includes application-specific functions that help improve seam finding, path correction, weld quality and overall process flexibility.
Touch sensing / Contact positioning
The robot can identify the actual welding position before the process starts, helping compensate for part variation and improving seam start accuracy.
Arc tracking
During welding, the robot can automatically correct weld path deviation in real time, helping maintain seam accuracy on fillet, butt and overlap joints.
Arc swing
CRP supports multiple weave patterns, including Z-shape, circular, crescent and triangular swing, which is useful for wider seams and demanding welding geometry.
Laser tracking
For applications where higher seam-finding capability is needed, CRP offers laser-based tracking functions to improve positioning accuracy and process stability.
Multi-layer & multi-pass welding
For thicker materials and deeper grooves, the system supports multi-layer and multi-pass welding. A base trajectory can be programmed once, while offsets and torch parameters can be adjusted for each layer.
Flying arc start
Function that initiates the arc while the robot is still moving toward the start point. This minimizes non-productive time
Real-time Monitoring
The system continuously monitors the welding arc for unexpected interruptions.
Wire-Clamping System
Locks the wire for ultra-stable seam finding. It eliminates "wire play," providing the rigid contact point necessary for high-precision positioning on medium and thick plate applications.
Positioners & external axes
The welding robot can be integrated with rotary positioners and other external axes to improve part access, increase productivity and support more complex weld geometry.
Linear tracks
Where a larger working envelope is needed, the robot cell can be extended with linear tracks for longer parts and broader cell coverage.
Hollow-wrist / internal cable routing design
Selected CRP welding robot designs feature compact forearm construction and through-hole / internal cable routing concepts, helping improve access in tight welding areas and reducing cable interference.
Collaborative welding options
CRP also offers collaborative welding systems with drag-to-teach programming, contact positioning and simplified operator interaction for flexible, small-batch production.
