Aluminum Robotic Welding Services in Ontario
Robot Welding Services Inc. supports Ontario manufacturers that need repeat aluminum welded components and assemblies. Send your drawing package and we review the alloy, joint design and fixturing, then weld it in our enclosed robotic cell in Burlington, Ontario.
Aluminum Robotic Welding Capabilities
Aluminum work that suits the robotic cell
The cell is an enclosed dual-station FANUC ArcMate 120iC with a Fronius TPS 400i power source running CMT and PMC processes, with an approximate 48 × 30 in working envelope. See the full robotic MIG welding overview for steel and stainless-steel work.
Repeat frames and tubular assemblies
Welded aluminum frames and tubular assemblies produced against a fixture for recurring production runs.
Brackets and production components
Smaller aluminum brackets and components that fit the approximate 48 × 30 in robotic-cell envelope.
Dedicated weld fixtures
RWS designs and builds the weld fixtures and production tooling that hold aluminum parts in position.
First-article review
A first article is produced and reviewed with you before repeat production begins.
Robotic MIG with CMT or PMC
The Fronius TPS 400i supports Cold Metal Transfer and Pulse Multi Control, used where the joint and material suit them.
Project-by-project review
Every project is reviewed for alloy, wall thickness, joint design, fit-up, weld access and production quantity.
Process Control
Why aluminum requires process control
Heat input must be controlled
Aluminum carries heat quickly, so the welding parameters and sequence are set to keep heat input under control.
Fit-up and cleanliness matter
Joint fit-up and clean material surfaces are part of the review before a part is quoted or welded.
Thin-wall work needs sequencing and fixturing
Thin-wall assemblies are held in dedicated fixtures and welded in a planned sequence.
Procedure and filler selected per application
The welding procedure and filler wire are selected according to the application. Not every aluminum alloy or component is suitable for the robotic cell.

FAQ
Aluminum welding questions
- Does RWS robotically weld aluminum?
- Yes. Aluminum is welded robotically in the enclosed dual-station FANUC ArcMate 120iC cell using a Fronius TPS 400i power source with CMT and PMC processes. Robotic MIG welding only — robotic TIG welding is not offered.
- What aluminum parts are suitable for robotic welding?
- Repeat frames, tubular assemblies, brackets and production components that fit the approximate 48 × 30-inch working envelope and can be held in a dedicated fixture. Alloy, wall thickness, joint design, fit-up, weld access and quantity are reviewed for every project.
- Can RWS build the welding fixture?
- Yes. Weld fixtures and production tooling are designed and built in-house as part of the job, alongside drawing review, DFM support, CAD assistance and production planning.
- Can RWS coordinate cutting, forming and powder coating?
- Yes. Cutting, forming, tube bending and powder coating are coordinated through established partners, so you deal with one accountable contact for the completed component.
- What information is needed for a quote?
- Send drawings, material and alloy, wall thickness, required quantities, weld and finish requirements, and your target delivery schedule — through the quote form or by email to sales@robotweldingservices.com. Customer identities and drawings remain confidential where required.
