Hey All -
Recently started with a new company and they hired me to implement welding robotics at their facility. I have about 4 years of experience with doing this, but almost all of my experience has been with Panasonic welding robots. I have a little experience with Fanuc, and none with Motoman or ABB. I hesitate to buy Panasonics because they don't build(that I know of) any higher payload robots, and if we get into material handling down the road I really don't want to have multiple brands. I'm leaning most toward Fanuc or Motoman. What are the pros and cons of either robot with a welding application? Thanks in advance.
