With their easy setup process, our automatic welding robots really stand out from the crowd. But also our focus on work preparation is critical, as the success of your machine and its ROI are both highly dependent on thorough detailing and preparation.
The Convenience Of Digi-Weld with the Voortman Fabricator
For decades, the structural steel industry has relied on 3D Steel Engineering systems to design complex structures. However, these systems were mostly focused on generating 2D workshop drawings and weren’t designed for robotic welding, making digital weld data extraction difficult. Introducing DIGI-WELD: a cloud-based tool that fully automates welding, ensuring precision and quality assurance.
DIGI-WELD is a must for The Fabricator, providing automated weld checks & fixes to simplify the complex decision-making and assessment process of welding projects.

COMPACT DESIGN AND SMALL FOOTPRINT
The Voortman Fabricator Automated Welding System is the perfect solution for steel fabricators seeking to optimize their workspace. With tracks on one side for easy loading and unloading, the Fabricator is a compact, space-saving system ideal for smaller workshops.
PROFILE LENGTHS UP TO 60 FT. (18M)
The Voortman Fabricator handles welding lengths up to 18m (60 ft.), making it perfect for large projects. Its extended tracks allow robots to select the best welding positions, avoiding fixed spots for greater precision and flexibility. This feature boosts efficiency, speeding up project completion without sacrificing quality.
EASY TO OPERATE IN ANY ENVIRONMENT
You can load with a forklift, side loader, or overhead crane, making it easy to operate in any workshop. Choose the method that works best for your specific layout and needs.
FAST ROTATIONS FOR MOST EFFICIENT FLOW
Built for efficient and reliable welding, this system is perfect for large assemblies with multiple components. The sturdy main beam rotation enables quick shifts between weld positions, maximizing part attachment speed and offering the most cost-effective solution.
