Why Service and Support Matter
In today’s manufacturing landscape, investing in a robotic welding solution is a significant decision. It’s about selecting a partner that not only delivers advanced welding technology but also offers ongoing support to keep operations running smoothly. According to a recent LinkedIn poll conducted by Cloos North America, over 70 % of respondents indicated that service and support are their top priorities when choosing a robotic welding partner.
This insight underscores that buyers in the welding industry need more than just cutting-edge equipment; they’re looking for a collaborative, customer-focused relationship that drives long-term success. So, what should you look for when selecting a robotic welding cell provider?
Single-source supplier
When it comes to robotic welding, the complexity of integrating multiple systems can lead to unexpected issues. Partnering with a single-source supplier means that every component – hardware, software, and support – is integrated from the same manufacturer. This approach reduces integration challenges, simplifies troubleshooting and ensures that each part of the solution is designed to work seamlessly with the others.
Inventory of replacement parts
For any robotic welding operation, minimizing downtime is crucial to maintaining productivity. One of the most effective ways to do this is by partnering with a supplier that maintains an extensive inventory of replacement parts. Having local access to essential components enables rapid repairs, reducing downtime and keeping your operations on track.
Support team and global parts network
Robotic welding technology is a long-term investment, and over time, there will inevitably be a need for support – whether that’s regular maintenance, troubleshooting or simply advice on best practices. A supplier with a comprehensive support team and a global parts network offers peace of mind, ensuring access to knowledgeable assistance and replacement parts.

Single point of contact for ongoing support
A robotic welding solution provider that offers a single point of contact simplifies your support experience, providing a go-to resource who understands your unique operation and challenges. This direct line to a dedicated support professional enhances response times and ensures personalized, consistent service.
The human element: A partnership beyond technology
Investing in a robotic welding cell is about choosing a partner committed to your success. Beyond machinery and technical specifications, the human element is essential. A robotic welding partner who values collaboration and customer success becomes an integral part of your team, ready to support, adapt and grow with your business. Selecting a robotic welding solution goes beyond the initial purchase. It’s a long-term commitment that should be backed by a team dedicated to your success.
