Dave Walters, a Senior Mechanical Systems Engineer at OTC DAIHEN, has put together this comparison of ROTA-ARC series robotic welding systems to assist distributors and customers in finding the best option when their production robotic welding application requires part repositioning via headstock/tailstock positioners.
At the core of all these systems is the headstock/tailstock (HS/TS) combination that supports repositioning (rolling over) parts during welding. The ROTA-ARC series includes the 250, 500 and 1000. Find a full comparison, including how they perform in relation to the DT-ARC and TRI-ARC systems and pricing, inside the OTC DAIHEN Robotic Welding Buyer's Guide.

Yoda Was Wrong! Try Simulation & Offline Programming First, Before you Weld
"Do. Or do not. There is no try." Yoda was wrong! When you work with OTC DAIHEN, you can try before you invest in one of our pre-engineered robotic welding cells. We offer a couple options that many of our clients find helpful when they want to examine our robotic welding options in order to ensure which is best for them or to drastically reduce changeover time on their welding production lines. Here's a quick look at how simulation and offline programming help you make a quick and successful transition to welding automation.

Robby the Robot. HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Ash in Alien. As long as robots have been around, people have been mistrustful or downright afraid of them.
The welding industry is no exception. Many companies - and welders themselves - fear the changes a robot would bring and the jobs it could replace.
