Hi All
I need
My company wants to set up one of Fanuc 100iB(Rj3iC) robot to weld aluminum.
I researched online and unable to figure out which setup will work
Like which welder, feeder and torch will be best to work with Fanuc brand(Fornius? Miller?...)
I am feeling lost

It doesn't make sense to see which welding machine works correctly with fanuc. We use the welding solutions for many different metals with robot. First of all, you need to look at the source of the material to be made by the brand you want to buy. Thickness of material for aluminum welding,
many factors such as mixing ratios and desired welding strength can be requested from you. It is important to know which welding machine meets your requirements. Then you can achieve the desired result by doing on / off and slightly fine tuning even if you do not directly introduce the welding machine to the robot.
If you contact the fanuc service in your area, they will give you a list of the welding machines that can be added to the software. -
Direct answer: Airliquide Citowave mx400,dv-r 500 wirefeeder,liquid cooled Dinse welding gun and spare parts.Attached to fanuc controller rj3i via crw1 standard fanuc welding interface (straight analog+digital,not using any industrial protocols),works flawless for 2 years-16h/day,6day/week.Bought used.Citowave was revelation after struggling with all sort of Miller equipment.And have bunch of special programs for aluminum,double pulse and custom pulse abilities.Also idiot-proof,rugged industrial machine...
