Automated Robotic Welding Services

Descripción general & Casos de uso

Able Hardware provides robotic welding services in China for repeatable, export-ready welded frames, carros, bases, and brackets. We integrate laser cutting and CNC prep, dedicated welding fixtures, and ISO-aligned QA so your assemblies arrive consistent, dimensionally true, and ready for downstream operations.

Why this solution for production repeatability & cost control

Robotic welding drives uniform penetration and bead geometry across large volumes, reducing rework and scrap. Programmed torch paths, controlled parameters, and planned weld sequences keep distortion in check, while dedicated fixtures compress cycle time and stabilize quality. The result is lower cost per unit at scale and fewer surprises in your assembly line. Explore related services: corte con láser, refinamiento, and our quality program.

Industrias típicas & aplicaciones

Material-handling carts and racks, industrial machinery frames and bases, warehouse fixtures, retail display structures, AGV/robot bases, and light to medium structural fabrications. See examples in custom metal frames y welding trolley carts.


Propiedades técnicas

Materiales, thickness range, weld quality levels

  • Materiales: Carbon steel tube/plate is standard; stainless steel is available on request.
  • Espesor: ~1.5–8.0 mm by single-pass robotic MIG; thicker sections via multi-pass with controlled inter-pass temperature (ºC).
  • Joint types: Fillet, lap, plug, and corner joints; weld sequencing planned to minimize heat input and distortion.
  • Quality levels: Visual inspection per YO ASI 17637 with acceptance to YO ASI 5817 Level B/C by agreement.

Limitaciones & alternatives (brief)

Very thick or highly reflective materials may require multi-pass regimes, specialized wire/process windows, or alternative processes. Where needed, we combine robotic MIG with light machining or post-straightening to meet tight datum requirements.

Opciones de fabricación

Supported processes & tolerancias (YO ASI 13920 / YO ASI 2768)

  • Prep: Corte por láser, sawing, and beveling; thermal cut quality per YO ASI 9013.
  • Soldadura: Robotic MIG with programmed paths and parameter control for consistent penetration and bead profile.
  • Post-ops: Straightening, drilling/tapping, and light machining to bring critical features into tolerance.
  • Tolerancias:
    • Welded structures per YO ASI 13920 (Clase ANTES DE CRISTO by agreement).
    • Machined features per ISO 2768-m or to print.
    • Datum schemes with functional A/B/C datums; GD&T controls for llanura, perpendicularity, parallelism, and position. For guidance, see GD&T for welded frames (/resources/gdt-welded-frames/).

Fixtures & acabado de la superficie (powder/zinc/e-coat)

Dedicated checking and welding fixtures secure frames and maintain geometry over long runs. Finishes include recubrimiento en polvo (RAL/Pantone equivalent), enchapado de zinc, y e-carro to agreed corrosion targets. We protect edges and paint during export with KD/nested packing, corner/edge guards, y ISPM-15 pallets/crates.

Tipos & Geometría

Common assemblies (marcos, carros, bases, soportes) & sizing

We routinely build:

  • Machine frames & bases: Box tube and plate sub-assemblies with gussets and leveling feet.
  • Material-handling carts & bastidores: Modular frames, estantes, y manijas; caster brackets and tow bars.
  • Brackets & subcames: Precision tabs, hinge plates, and mounting features tied to datum A/B/C. Typical envelope sizes range from hand-carry brackets up to large welded frames that ship knock-down to optimize container loading.

Calidad & Pruebas

Lo que verificamos (ISO/AWS methods—visual, END, MMC, PPAP basics)

  • Inspección visual: YO ASI 17637; acceptance to ISO 5817 Level B/C.
  • END (optional): MT/PT/UT/RT to YO ASI 17638/17640/17636 for critical welds.
  • Dimensional control: Checking fixtures for routine checks; first-article and periodic MMC for key characteristics.
  • Metallurgical checks: Macro-etch samples by agreement.
  • Trazabilidad & docs: Heat/batch certificates, COA, y PPAP basics per agreed element list. Review our QA approach at /quality/.

Precios & Tiempo de espera

Moq, Política de muestra, conductores de costos indicativos (Sin precios duros)

  • Moq: We support pilot runs; typical production MOQs start from 50–200 pcs per release depending on size and fixture complexity.
  • Samples/Prototypes: 1–5 pcs common for fit-ups and weld validation before fixture sign-off.
  • Lead time model: Prototype → fixture sign-off → SOP. After SOP, releases ship on cadence via blanket orders.
  • Cost drivers: Material grade and thickness; total weld length and joint type; tolerance class (YO ASI 13920 B vs C); NDT/inspection scope; finalizar (powder vs e-coat vs zinc); método de embalaje (KD vs assembled); y Logistics Lane. Request a line-item quote through /services/robotic-welding/.

Preguntas más frecuentes

Do you work primarily with carbon steel?

Sí. Carbon steel tube/plate is our standard for frames and carts. We also support stainless steel on request when specified.

What thickness range do your robots handle?

Single-pass robotic MIG typically covers ~1.5–8.0 mm. Thicker sections are welded multi-pass with controlled inter-pass temperatures.

What tolerances can you hold?

General welded assemblies follow YO ASI 13920 Class B/C; machined features follow ISO 2768-m or your print. GD&T for flatness, perpendicularity, parallelism, and position is supported using datum A/B/C.

Which processes are included before and after welding?

We provide corte con láser, sawing, beveling, and after welding can straighten, drill/tap, and lightly machine critical features.

How do you verify weld quality?

Visual inspection to YO ASI 17637 with acceptance per YO ASI 5817. Optional MT/PT/UT/RT per ISO standards. Dimensional checks via fixtures and MMC for key features.

What is a typical lead time?

Prototypes often complete in 2–3 weeks, fixtures in ~1–2 weeks (parallel), and SOP shipments follow release schedules. Timelines vary by scope and finish.

What should I include in my RFQ?

Drawings with material grade and thickness, weld symbols (YO ASI 2553), GD&T and datum scheme, tolerance class, finalizar, inspection scope (p.ej., YO ASI 5817 Level), embalaje, and target volumes.
