TIG robot torch systems – spot-on precision
To provide even more flexibility and improved accessibility, the “i” and “s” series torch bodies are available in eight different sizes and geometries – ideal for complex applications. This wide choice guarantees maximum adaptability and seamless integration into your welding processes.
- You only need one hosepack for a range of different torch bodies
- Torch bodies are available in a range of angles and power categories
- The TCP accuracy of the torch body is +/- 0.8 mm
- Cooling of the torch bodies has been improved by increasing the water flow rate
Plasma robot welding torches - maximum power
The water-cooled gas nozzle is equipped with an optimized gas shield, which generates a heavily constricted plasma arc; this allows greater welding depths and a noticeably faster welding process. The shielding gas flows through the external nozzle, reliably protecting the seam throughout the entire welding process.
- Welding torch in two sizes
- Compatible with hosepack for TIG and ArcTig welding processes
- Maximum welding depth without seam preparation thanks to concentrated arc
- Wear parts enjoy a long service life due to the water-cooled gas nozzle
- Longer lasting thanks to protected tungsten electrode
- Gas shield is around 30% more effective
- Up to 20% faster welding speeds compared to TIG
ArcTig robot welding torches - for single-run welding with depth
Switching from TIG to ArcTig is quick and easy with our quick-change coupling on the welding torch hosepack. Existing Fronius iWave TIG systems can be readily converted to an ArcTig system at any time.
- Two welding torch sizes for different power ranges
- Patented electrode clamping and cooling system ensures wear parts enjoy a long service life
- Freely adjustable electrode extension
- Standard electrodes can be used—no separate wear part required
- Electrode is easy to regrind
- Dedicated hosepack for ArcTig PowerSharing
For TIG, plasma, and ArcTig robot applications
“i” torch body
- Torch bodies in a range of shapes and sizes
- Integrated connection for trailing gas and water cooling
- Detachable wirefeed
- Suitable for hollow-arm robots and conventional robotic applications
- Integrated BID (welding torch ID) for detection and tracking during the production process
“i” TIG welding torch hosepack
A particularly high degree of efficiency is achieved through the use of an internal wirefeeding hose for hollow-arm robot systems. The four buttons integrated on the hosepack permit intuitive control, while the status LED provides immediate feedback on the operating status. The direct control of important functions – such as forwards/backwards movements of the wire, gas flow/gas test, and cooling circuit on/off – means that operation from the power source is no longer necessary.
Push system (hollow arm/conventional)
For conventional robotic and mechanical applications
Torch body “s”
- Two torch bodies in a range of shapes and sizes
- Ideal for conventional robots, mechanical applications, and cobot cells
Torch hosepack “s”
The “s” series welding torch hosepack is designed specifically for conventional applications. It is characterized by its ruggedness and flexibility. It offers reliable performance for mechanical applications and supports all the functions necessary for efficient, standardized welding processes.
- Robust hosepack for conventional applications
- Ideal for mechanical processes
- High reliability and flexibility for simple welding tasks

Cold-wire feed “Standard M”
- Slimline design for a clear view of the weld pool
- Mechanical locking for constant wire position and stable wire feeding
- Easy handling when changing the gas nozzle
- Can be locked in place at any angle
Cold-wire feed “Standard R”
- Slimline design for a clear view of the weld pool

Cold-wire feed “Low Friction”
This cold-wire feed is ideal for welding tasks that require a steeper and shallower wire feeding angle.
- Welding torch angle adjustable according to the application
- Fine adjustment possible for precise applications
- Can be retrofitted and removed
- Mountable on standard torch bodies
Spring-loaded CrashBox – maximum protection for your welding torch
In the event of a crash, the new spring-loaded CrashBox technology with multi-directional triggering (+/- X, +/- Y, +/- Z) – including negative Z – enables the spring-loaded thrust bolts to be deflected so that after just a couple of millimeters of travel they no longer exert any force on the torch body.
This complete triggering across all axes guarantees even higher levels of protection and prevents damage to the torch – regardless of the direction of the collision.
Hot wire connection set
- Increased deposition rate with consistently high quality
- Higher welding speeds
- Perfect weld quality
- Reduced number of layers with joint welding
- Less dilution of the base material
Tungsten Fast Clamp (TFC) electrode change in just two steps
The “Tungsten Fast Clamp” system is compatible with the TTB 450 robot welding torch and allows the electrode to be changed quickly.
- The electrode can be changed quickly and easily in just 5–7 seconds
- Constant clamping of the electrode as result of defined spring force – stable even over long welding times
- Prevents damage caused by tightening the torch cap too tightly or not tightly enough
- Ideal for electrodes of up to 1/8 inches in diameter and 6 inches in length
