The Olympus Universal Robot Welding System combines the latest welding technology and equipment with Universal Robot’s innovative robotic technology creating an economical and high-quality robotic welding solution, but what sets it apart from its competitors?

  1. Full UK support

The Olympus UR Welding System is the ONLY Cobot welding system sold in the UK and Ireland that is fully supported from within the United Kingdom. With the solution designed and the software written in-house, Olympus supports all welding power sources that we sell, and our partners offer local servicing and calibration. As an approved UR+ Software Developer and UR Certified System Integrator, we are the experts to look after your robot. Warranty support is provided fully from within the UK, and we visit customers when required to minimise disruption to your production.

Storth Machinery bought their first Olympus Cobot Welding System in 2020, and following 4x productivity improvements, bought a 2nd system in 2022, with the robot mounted on a horizontal track to extend the range of parts that could be welded.

“Whenever we have had any issues, Olympus have been very quick to support us, both on the phone, and when required on site. We cannot fault their post-sales support, and they really do deliver on promising to look after their customers.”

  1. Robot Welding Torch

We offer a choice of robotic welding torches from two of the global leaders in high-performance welding equipment & fume extraction - DINSE & Translas.

The Translas 8XR Cobot MIG Extractor, which is Universal Robot+ Certified, integrates as one of the best fume extraction torches in the industry and DINSE offers the highest quality equipment guaranteeing maximum productivity and outstanding quality. They include their market leading dual circuit water cooling, extending the life of your welding consumables.

  1. Intelligent Software

More than simply an interface, our software offers weld, stitch and tack functions, power source monitoring, management of parameters across programs and weaving options, with new features being added. The software is developed and maintained by our experienced engineers in Huddersfield. Olympus Technologies is one of only a small number of companies worldwide to be certified by Universal Robots to develop URCaps.

  1. Range of Power Sources

Unlike our competitors we offer a comprehensive range of power sources from the world’s leading manufacturers, designed for high-productivity and high-quality welding applications. Manufacturers we offer include ESAB, EWM, GYS, Kemppi & Fronius.

  1. Bespoke Training

We offer as standard, a comprehensive bespoke 2-day UR welding training package based at our Huddersfield office with one of our expert welding engineers. After successfully completing the training package the operators will be able to independently operate the welding system to weld their own products, ensuring you quickly move into production once the equipment is installed by our team.

  1. Easy installation and programming

The Olympus UR Welding system offers the simplest programming interface on the market, even for inexperienced operators. All programming is done with touch screen menus, eliminating the need for any complicated coding or script. The robot itself can be manually pulled into position using a button on the welding torch, saving precious time when programming.
