ABB Arc Welding Pricing & Product Details

ABB’s Arc Welding software suite is a powerful set of tools designed to streamline and enhance robotic arc welding processes. Central to the offering is RobotStudio ArcWelding PowerPac, a CAD-based offline programming tool that simplifies program creation by allowing users to define weld locations on a 3D model. The system automatically generates robot paths, including approach and departure points, significantly reducing setup time and increasing precision. This feature ensures efficient programming for complex geometries, helping manufacturers achieve faster deployment and improved consistency in welding quality.

Another standout component is RobotWare Arc, which integrates robotic positioning with process control into a single, intuitive system. This software supports advanced functionalities like seam tracking, fine adjustment during execution, and automatic re-strike after errors, ensuring high reliability in dynamic production environments. It also adapts to various welding equipment and incorporates features such as weaving, wire burnback, and rollback for optimal weld quality. These capabilities cater to industries requiring robust error handling and precise control in high-volume welding applications.

Lastly, the VirtualArc® tool provides offline simulation for MIG/MAG welding. It enables users to predict and tune welding parameters, optimizing weld quality and minimizing start-up times. VirtualArc® includes financial modeling tools, allowing manufacturers to estimate welding costs per meter and analyze productivity improvements. This focus on pre-planning and optimization makes ABB’s Arc Welding software indispensable for achieving cost-effective, high-quality welding processes in automotive, aerospace, and general industrial manufacturing.
