One size does not fit all. No two manufacturers have the same processes, and standardized equipment can’t always deliver the same result as a customized, made-to-order solution. With a varying degree of possibilities for a weld’s intended shape, size and profile, customizing your automated solutions allows you to tailor your system to what’s most important in your situation.  

Linde custom-engineered systems fit your budget and project needs. Our productivity experts can help you decide which solutions bring the best balance of cost and functionality to meet your specific automated welding operation. Time and expenses may be higher up front, but the end result is a customized welding system that does exactly what you need without extras you won’t use. Many custom systems can also be expanded or integrated with other workstations or processes as your needs change, overall improving your bottom line and maximizing productivity.

Fixtures and Tooling

Among the many forms of customization Linde can do for your operation, customized tooling fixtures are a major component. Fixtures are essential to most machining processes and can have a direct impact on productivity, cost and quality. These fixtures can range from simple hand clamping fixtures and progressive tooling to cut through base plates and smart tooling with Human Machine Interfaces (HMI) interfaces. You can learn more in depth by checking out our previous blog here. No matter how simple or complex your needs are, Linde’s experts will focus on the details to help make sure the fixturing solution we recommend and provide is tailored specifically for your manufacturing operation.

Resistance Welding Automation 

Linde has the flexibility to design and build any size system for your resistance welding needs, ranging from small to medium-size pedestal units to large, integrated robotic packages. We can also customize a pre-engineered robotic weld cell specifically for your welding application. Our robot programming and weld development optimizes cell performance, minimizes inefficient air moves, and maximizes weld travel speeds and throughput.

Additional productivity options include programmable logic controllers (PLC) and Human Machine Interfaces (HMI), torch maintenance systems and fume hoods built for your specific weld cell.
