Fronius UK Opens Regional Welding Technology Centre in Rotherham’s Advanced Manufacturing Park..
We are proud to announce the opening of our new ”Technical Competence Centre” at the Advanced Manufacturing Park in Catcliffe, just four miles from Sheffield. This facility allows us to offer customers bespoke welding trials, demonstrations, training, servicing and dedicated technical support.
With a team of Sales, Service Engineers and Application Engineers on site, we can now support regional customers more closely than ever before, strengthening our nationwide presence alongside our locations in Milton Keynes and Kilmarnock.
For us, it’s simple: being close to our customers enables us to spend more time on-site, understand their challenges in detail and provide the best possible support. This new centre allows us to respond faster, collaborate more closely and stand alongside manufacturers as we tackle their daily welding challenges together - living our motto: connected by welding, united by passion.
As a leading European manufacturer of advanced welding technology, we continue to push innovation across manual gas shielded arc welding, high performance robotic systems, user friendly cobot welding solutions and fully automated welding systems. With more than 1,700 active patents worldwide, we remain committed to driving the next generation of welding technology.
Our portfolio includes the high end iWave TIG system, the powerful TPS/i TWIN series, plug and play cobot welding solutions and our pioneering Cold Metal Transfer (CMT) process, enabling reliable joining of galvanised steel and aluminium. Our offering is further strengthened by the new Fronius Fortis, a versatile and intuitive manual MIG/MAG system built for long-term performance. These technologies are trusted across automotive, aerospace, nuclear, commercial vehicle manufacturing and heavy industry for their stability, repeatability and reliability.
As manufacturers face increasing pressures - from skills shortages to tighter quality and sustainability requirements - we want to make welding easier, safer and more consistent for everyone. That’s why we prioritise intuitive operation, seam perfection and long-term sustainability. Every Fronius product is designed for durability, repairability and recyclability, made entirely in Europe and rigorously tested to deliver reliable performance for decades.
