Automation of your welding workshop
Automating your welding workshop may seem straightforward at first glance, but choosing the right automation solution for your production process can be challenging. Should you opt for cobot welding, robot welding, laser welding, or perhaps cobot cutting and grinding? Elektrolas is happy to show you all the possibilities in automation, so that together we can make the right choices that align with your production needs.
Would you prefer to discuss it by phone? No problem! We would be happy to get in touch with you to discuss all your requirements.

When to automate your welding workshop?
In an era of increasing scarcity of welders and stricter customer demands, automation is the key to success. By implementing advanced technologies such as welding robots, cobots, and laser welding, productivity is automatically increased, while quality is ensured. These automated solutions reduce the need for human labor, resulting in consistent results and shorter lead times.
By opting for automation, you provide your welding workshop with the tools to excel in a demanding market. We understand the challenges you face and offer customized solutions that increase your productivity and meet the strictest standards.
Welding with a cobot
Cobot welding is becoming increasingly common. But what else can a cobot do? Did you know that in addition to welding, a cobot can also sand, grind, and cut? These options make it possible for a cobot to be used for various tasks.
At Elektrolas, we choose the reliable quality of Universal Robots, the market leader in providing cobots. We prefer the UR10e and UR20 models. With their lightweight construction and flexibility, they are ideally suited for welding technology. These robots not only offer precision but also enable welding and sanding with a cobot arm.

Laser Welding
With laser welding, thin materials are precisely fused together. This results in deep, strong, high-quality welds.
- High Speed: The process is fast, ensuring efficiency in production.
- Minimal Heat Input: This prevents material deformation and results in clean, precise welds.
- Optical Quality: The welds are visually appealing and have a clean finish.
Robot Welding
Robot welding is an advanced production technique where a welding robot controls the welding torch, largely eliminating the human factor. This results in consistent, high-quality welding. In a time when finding experienced welders can be a challenge, robot welding offers solutions that set the standard. Here are some advantages:
- Consistent quality: Every weld is perfect, without variations.
- High speed: Robot welding is significantly faster than manual welding.
- Reduced dependence on labor: Production can continue without the limitations of available welders.
- Improved safety: Reduced exposure to potentially hazardous situations


Frequently Asked Questions
What is the delivery time for a cobot?
Generally, the delivery time can vary from a few weeks to several months, depending on the supplier and any necessary customizations.
What does it cost to innovate your welding workshop?
The costs for innovating a welding workshop depend on various factors, such as the size of the workshop, the type of cobot, any infrastructure adjustments, and staff training.
Is it possible to visit the COBOT center?
Yes, it is possible to visit the COBOT center. This can be arranged upon request. During the visit, a demonstration can be provided to gain a better insight into the possibilities and applications of cobots.
When should you deploy a cobot?
A cobot can be ideal in situations involving repetitive work, a shortage of skilled professionals, or when the current workforce is limited in size. Cobots can be deployed to automate tasks and increase productivity under such circumstances.
