KUKA Will Demonstrate Cost-Effective Automated Arc Welding at FABTECH 2025

Visitors to booth #B17039 in Hall B of the North Building will see live demonstrations of the company’s KR CYBERTECH nano ARC Edition robot, which delivers superior weld quality compared to traditional arc welding and is built for flexible, continuous operation. Its economical operation helps manufacturers optimize their welding applications and overall productivity at a lower cost.

SHELBY TOWNSHIP, Mich., May 19, 2025 - KUKA Robotics will feature its cost-effective and efficient automated arc welding robotics and technology at FABTECH 2025 from Sept. 8-11 at McCormick Place in Chicago, Ill. Visitors to booth #B17039 in Hall B of the North Building will see live demonstrations of the company's KR CYBERTECH nano ARC Edition robot, which delivers superior weld quality compared to traditional arc welding and is built for flexible, continuous operation. Its economical operation helps manufacturers optimize their welding applications and overall productivity at a lower cost.


KUKA's automated arc welding portfolio consists of the KR CYBERTECH nano ARC Edition robot for simple, cost-effective welding that provides dynamic automation in price-sensitive markets. The Edition robot is available in two reaches from 1,440 mm to 2,010 mm and features a hollow wrist with bearings on either side of the robot with a diameter of 46 mm and a repeatability of 0.04 mm. The robot delivers an extremely high path accuracy and speed to workpieces for maximum efficiency and less downtime.

Edition robots use the latest-generation KR C5 controller and appropriate welding software, such as KUKA.ArcTech Basic. The variant offers simplified, focused and reliable technology as well as significantly lowering procurement costs.

KUKA will also debut the new arc cellerate cell, the company's standardized welding solution designed to offer an economical and efficient option for high-mix, low-volume applications. Available in both index and side-by-side configurations, these fully equipped cells are ready to perform a wide range of welding tasks, delivering exceptional flexibility for diverse manufacturing needs.

All KUKA automation solutions, including those shown during FABTECH 2025, are backed by the company's expert service and support for training, complete system engineering and simulation, readily available spare parts, robot refurbishment and more, all of which are easily accessible through the my.KUKA.com site.
