WHY AUTOMATE?
Increased productivity by the use of automation
What is the minimum quantity to make automate welding worth it? The general rule: the higher the quantities, the better the return on invest! Next to the net unit costs there are far more aspects that contribute to higher productivity of welding production. Our experts will gladly advice you under which circumstances an automation pays off for you.
Extended feasibility and quality
- Continuous welding seams
- Reduced heat input
- High visual requirements
Realise potential savings
- Reduction of labour costs
- Prevention of oversized welding seams
- Shorter lead times
- Less time required to achieve optimum results
WHY AUTOMATE WITH LORCH?
All from one source
High quality welding automation requires complete control over high quality power sources, welding torches and further components and systems such as precision torch and workpiece manipulation. Alongside the aspiration to increase productivity, the central point of welding automation is and will always remain the guarantee of the required level of weld quality. To reach both targets without detours, competences in automation and welding are both necessary. Based on the motto All from one source provides Lorch a direct and safe way into the welding automation.
Arc welding and automation competences
- The result „welding seam“ needs both
- Lorch can do both
Quality and documentation
- Verified product quality
- Serious CE validation
- Self-descriptive product catalogues
- Comprehensive technical documentation in each local language

Robotics
The greatest challenges for a welder can be summed up in the trifecta of consistent quality, large quantities and top-notch productivity. These are the areas where industrial robot welding truly shines. Lorch has made it exceedingly easy for you to enter the world of robotic arc welding. Outfitted with a large number of standardised communication interfaces, our robotics systems work with solutions made by such leading manufacturers as ABB, Fanuc, Kuka, Motoman, and many others. It is generally possible to pair our robotics systems with any welding robot. Whether you opt for a bundle or a solution tailored to your application, the seamless interplay of all components - from the control to the arc - is guaranteed to produce perfect results.
Automated welding
Lorch Trac welding carriages Boost the performance of your welding production by combining your Lorch power sources with Lorch’s new welding carriages. The welding carriage takes charge of guiding the torch continuously, allowing the welder to solely focus on setting the welding parameters. This gives a welcome boost to productivity and the quality of the weld seam. The heat input becomes much easier to control and will cause significantly less distortion. The high level of repeatability and reproducibility also decrease stress levels to unprecedented lows. And, a greater distance to the torch improves the work situation for the welder tremendously.
Modular system circular weld seamLorch’s modular system kit makes sure that you will only pay for what you really need when it comes to automating your welding task.
One must set the tone. The LorchControl control unit acts as the conductor of an automation orchestra that plays in perfect harmony. All modules of the system kit work together seamlessly and receive their commands from the control unit via the LorchNet bus system.
