Circumferential welding systems

Close-up of the torch: Fronius FCW-Smart welding cell.

Mechanized circumferential welding systems for components of any size

We have the right welding system for every application. Our solutions are the ultimate in precision and efficiency, meeting the full scope of requirements for quality and reliability in tank, vessel, and pipeline construction in particular.

We also offer custom solutions that stand up to any challenge. Working with our mechanized circumferential welding systems, you can weld components of very different sizes and weight classes—thanks to systems ranging from compact welding cells for smaller components through to robust systems for heavy workpieces.

Cutting-edge technology and premium materials deliver top results, making our welding systems incredibly versatile, simple to use, and easy to maintain. Even welds, high process stability, and less rework are just a few of the advantages—and you can benefit too.
