Custom Robotic Welding Systems

Fully engineered automation for applications that other integrators won't take on.

Applications That Require Custom Engineering

Pre-engineered robotic welding systems work great for many applications, but some projects require custom engineering. You might need a custom solution if your parts are too large, too varied, or too technically challenging for standard automation approaches.

Large parts, like dump truck bodies, create size and reachability constraints that pre-engineered systems can’t handle. Multi-robot applications need specialized coordination and programming that go beyond standard cell capabilities.

If other integrators have told you “that can’t be done” or walked away from your project, you probably need custom engineering. Mach Machines specializes in the applications that others turn down.

Our Custom Solutions Expertise

Application-First Engineering

We design systems around your specific needs rather than trying to fit your application into a standard package. Each custom system is fully engineered for your parts, your workflow, and your production requirements.

Custom Gantry Systems For Large-Scale Products

Our gantry systems handle large parts that require extended reach and positioning capabilities. These overhead structures provide the access needed for welding oversized assemblies.

Vision-Based Seam Tracking Technology

Our Server Robot technology shines a line laser onto the weld joint and keeps the robot aimed at the seam. This Powertrack system handles material movement and warping that occurs during welding.

Multi-Robot System

Coordination

We program and coordinate multiple robots working on the same part or in the same cell. Our systems handle the timing and synchronization needed for multi-robot applications.

Complete Engineering and Support Process

Custom robotic welding systems require complete project partnership, not just equipment delivery. We handle every aspect from initial concept through ongoing support, staying involved long after other integrators would have moved on to their next project.

Your Welding Automation Partner

Mach Machines is a welding-focused robotic integrator that makes advanced automation accessible to fabricators of all sizes. While most integrators are generalists trying to serve every industry, we specialize in welding automation and understand the specific challenges that come with automating welding operations.

Our approach centers on giving you programming independence and complete control over your automation systems. We don’t just solve your immediate automation challenge—we equip you with the tools and knowledge to maintain and expand your capabilities as your business grows. 

Whether you need a custom solution for an application others have turned down or an entry-level system to get started with automation, we have the expertise to make it work for your specific situation.

Besides custom robotics systems, our solutions include:

  • Pre-Engineered Systems: Ready-to-deploy systems for faster deployment and lower-cost entry into automation.
  • VC Robotics OLP Programming Software: Offline programming software for high-mix, low-volume production.
  • Integration & Support Services: Complete project management from start to finish with continuous support.

FAQ: Custom Robotic Welding Systems

What makes a project require a custom solution versus a pre-engineered system?

Custom solutions are typically needed when parts are too large for standard robot reach, require specialized positioning like gantry systems, or involve multi-robot coordination. Projects with unique reachability constraints, complex geometries, or applications that other integrators have turned down usually require custom engineering.
We specialize in challenging applications that others won’t take on. Our custom engineering approach includes feasibility studies, digital twinning, and application-first design. We’ve successfully automated projects involving large parts like dump truck bodies, complex multi-robot systems, and applications requiring specialized vision tracking technology.
Not necessarily. Our VC Robotics OLP programming software works with over 1,500 robot models from all major brands. We can often integrate your existing robots into a custom solution, though some applications may require specific robot capabilities or positioning systems.
