PANASONIC TL-1800 GIII welding robot

PANASONIC TL-1800 GIII welding robot was built in 2021 in Japan by Panasonic Smart Factory Solutions Co., Ltd. The machine, distinguished by its high reliability and ease of operation, is an excellent choice for precision welding of workpieces using the TIG method. Its slim design, combined with the large range of arm movement, allows free operation in all positions, even in hard-to-reach places. The TL 1800 robot arm is offered together with equipment, which includes a controller, a portable control unit and a TIG welder. The total weight of the machine is 215 kg.
