About Navigator Robot Welder

Navigator Robot Welder mounts an industrial welding arm on a mecanum-wheel mobile base. Lidar supports localisation around large workpieces, while three-dimensional vision identifies seams and generates a welding path from the observed geometry. The system can reposition itself around structures that exceed the working range of a fixed robot.

LE Robotics’ software plans motion, controls welding parameters and adapts the path to manufacturing variation without conventional point-by-point teaching. The platform is intended for shipbuilding, steel structures, heavy machinery and other low-volume production involving large or non-standard parts. Delivery includes the robot, welding equipment, sensing and site integration.
