Marathon launches entry-level robotic welding cell

Marathon's new 'personal weld cell' is said to be the answer to repetitive manual applications; the Mini-Z can deliver the same punch as the bigger cells – but at a fraction of the cost. The Mini-Z is a competent, standalone option for short-run shops, or can be easily integrated into large-scale production manufacturing operations.

A small footprint gives the unit ease of mobility and accessibility for tooling changeover. Shipped assembled and ready for immediate installation and production, the Mini-Z is a flexible alternative to manual welding.

The Mini-Z welder comes complete with:

  • Compact footprint
  • Lean cell design
  • Work window 24 x 16in (W x H)
  • Easy-to-program Kawasaki robot
  • User-friendly teach pendant controls
  • Fronius weld control
  • 3D weld path modelling
  • Turnkey tooling/fixturing
  • DeviceNet options
