robotic welding for bridge manufacturers

Bridge structures

We have a production-proven solution for bridge steel fabricators. ABAGY's intelligent welding system handles long parts and non- serial products perfectly

A mix of different parts

BRIDGE GIRDERS

Cross frames

Orthotropic bridge deck

One robotic system can be used to weld hundreds of different types of products, with 0 switching cost from one to another
robotic welding for straight girders
robotic welding for haunched girders
robotic welding for railroad bridges
robotic welding for trusses
fillet weld

Not only bridge structures

You can weld any parts that fit into the working area of the robotic cell.
Not only bridge structures either. You can weld any other steel parts, if required. No switching costs. No hassle.

A robotic cell with ABAGY can have any configuration

Below are some of the most popular solutions for bridge manufacturing
robotic cell with 2 robots on tracks: maximum perfomance
Two robots can weld one workpiece together, or different products at the same time in one work zone. Track length can vary and depends on your request (depends on the length of the parts - 60 ft, 120 ft, or 150 ft)
MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE.

PRODUCTS EXAMPLES:
robotic cell with 1 robot on a track: affordable option
One robot on a track is also a great option when working with long parts. Length of the track can vary and depends on your requirements.
MORE AFFORDABLE OPTION.

robotic cell with 1 robot on a gantry: high robot reachability
Placing the robot onto a gantry increases its reachability. The length and width of the robotic cell can be changed.
HIGH ROBOT REACHABILITY.
