Robotic Welding Cells Compact. Complete. Flexible.
Standard welding cells From one-off to series production
Robot welding cells are gaining in popularity. No wonder: welding robots can be deployed in a very small space and quickly reconfigured as needed. This makes robot welding very attractive, even for smaller companies.
Blumenbecker has long been a leading technology provider for arc welding, spot welding and laser welding in the automotive industry. This accumulated experience informs the development of our welding cells for various needs. Our welding cells are highly modular and standardized and so can be quickly adapted to any task. They are excellent choices for welding-intensive businesses of any size since the robots deliver consistent quality at any time of day.
Blumenbecker standard welding cells are plug-and-play for unprecedented mobility and flexibility. Being rugged machines, they can be easily moved to their production station by a forklift or crane and then simply plugged in to the power and supply lines. Setup and teardown takes very little time and results in minimal production downtime. Do you want to reconfigure your machine to produce other components or versions? Not a problem. Our machines are easy to expand thanks to their modular design and uniform platform size.
We supply two lines of standard welding cells:
- Arc2GO for arc welding
- Weld2GO for laser welding
We can deliver a standard welding cell perfectly tailored to your needs.
Five benefits of standard welding cells
1. Robust
Blumenbecker standard welding cells are extremely rugged. That means they can easily be moved around your production area with a forklift or crane.
2. Inexpensive
Our robot cells are an excellent value because we build them to be modular and are not tied to any one manufacturer.
3. Variable
Choose between Arc2GO robot cells for arc welding and Weld2GO robot cells for laser welding.
4. Plug and play
Standardized supply connections speed up commissioning – fast and easy.
5. Safe
We provide a one-of-a-kind all-round service, from the initial consultation, design and programming to maintenance by our service technicians.
Blumenbecker Arc2GO For one-off and series production
We supply Arc2GO standard welding cells in three basic configurations:
- With a manual two-station turntable
- With an electric two-station turntable
- With a 3-axis KUKA Posiflex system
We can also ship the welding cells with a safety roller door if you wish. This reduces the overall footprint and is particularly suited for cells with electric turntables.
Blumenbecker's Arc2GO standard welding cells have a compact design that allows a small footprint, greater application versatility and exceptional user friendliness. Thanks to their extreme mobility – they can easily be moved by forklift and crane – they can be readily integrated into existing production environments, and if changes need to be made, can be quickly and flexibly placed wherever they offer the most benefit and efficiency in the production line.
We can also supply other cell-based robot applications for specific purposes such as gluing or handling. Ask us for details!

Blumenbecker Weld2GO Premium-quality laser welding
Laser welding stations are used for manifold manufacturing applications – from brazing roofs and tailgates in the automotive industry to welding door skins prior to pressing. However, they can also produce attractive welds that require no finishing in stainless steel, aluminium or copper.
Weld2GO is a complete, mobile, standardized system for robot laser welding and cladding.

Weld2GO Laser cladding
The Weld2GO laser welding cell is a standardized robot cell with a sliding top. It can be easily relocated with a forklift and expanded to up to eight robot axes.
Laser cladding deposits virtually any type of material onto the surface of a workpiece. This process works especially well for finishing surfaces and is often used to repair large components such as dies, moulds or drive and turbine parts that are too expensive to simply replace.

Robotic workplaces & Robotic cells Design Office & Assembly Workshop
In 2008, we founded our own machinery Design Office and Assembly Workshop in order to offer our customers significantly more comprehensive services than it was in the past, when we concentrated mainly on creation of application software. Today's workshop is fully equipped with mechanical appliances (lathe, cutters, shears, circular and band saw, etc.). There are two KUKA robots available for developing and testing of user's robotic applications. Designers make use very powerful 3D software Solid Edge ST2 for 3D modeling both individual parts and final weldments, further for automatic generation of 2D drawings from 3D models directly, etc. For off-line robot programming a special powerful software POWER MILL ROBOT INTERFACE is used, which represents a considerable shortening of the period for the creation and subsequent easy maintenance of user programs. This software also allows off-line optimizing of robot working paths. The concrete result of our Design Bureau.
