Fronius power source
Fronius arc welding power sources, such as the TPS/i series, known for digital process control and tight integration with major robot brands.
Fronius TPS/i power sources use a fully digital control architecture, letting the robot controller adjust weld parameters with fine resolution and switch between process modes like pulse, CMT, or standard MIG within the same weld program. CMT, cold metal transfer, is particularly common for thin sheet and dissimilar metal joining.
Fronius builds robot interface packages for FANUC, ABB, Yaskawa, and other major brands, exposing weld start, parameter selection, and status feedback through the robot's arc welding software package.
Because CMT and pulse processes are sensitive to torch angle and travel speed, robot path programming for Fronius-equipped cells often needs closer tuning than a basic constant-voltage MIG setup.
