Mod-Weld Dual Station H-Frame
The MOD-WELD® Dual Station H-Frame from APT Manufacturing Solutions is designed for demanding robotic welding applications that require strength, stability, and high payload capacity. Built around FANUC ARC Mate industrial robots, this configuration supports large components and high-volume fabrication workflows.
For education and workforce training programs, the H-Frame helps students move beyond basic robotic welding into industrial-scale automation. Learners can explore part positioning, coordinated motion, fixture design, production workflow, and weld quality in a system that closely reflects real manufacturing environments.
This system is a strong fit for advanced welding, robotics, mechatronics, and manufacturing programs that want to prepare students for modern fabrication careers.
- Best for large and heavy parts that require a strong, stable welding platform.
- Supports high-volume workflows where repeatability and throughput matter.
- Ideal for advanced programs that want to simulate industrial-scale robotic welding.
- Strong fit for structural fabrication, heavy components, and production-focused training.
The H-Frame system is designed for high-volume production and heavier components, making weld stability, deposition rate, and repeatable performance especially important.
- Fronius TPS/i: Supports advanced process control and high-performance automated welding applications.
- Miller Auto-Continuum™: Provides consistent arc performance for repeatable weld quality in production-style environments.
- Fronius LSC: Helps reduce spatter and improve weld consistency during longer production runs.
- Fronius CMT: Supports advanced applications involving thin materials, brazing, visual-quality welds, cladding, and multi-material welding.
- FANUC TPW: Combines touch sensing and through-arc seam tracking to help manage part variation and improve weld accuracy.
- Tip reamer, nozzle spray, and wire snip system
- Additional Allen-Bradley I/O
