WA COMPACT
Gantry Welding System
The WA Compact is an advanced and versatile welding solution designed for continuous and stitch butt or fillet welds using the MIG/MAG process.
It features pendant-based machine control and provides efficient joint tracking for active torch position compensation, both vertically and horizontally, with or without oscillation.
Supporting multiple oscillation patterns, straight, triangle, trapezoid, and square — the WA Compact adapts easily to a wide range of welding tasks.
Ideally suited for industrial use, it offers a highly efficient and cost-effective solution for workshops and large-scale production environments.

WA Compact Oscillation Paths
Square: The machine travels only during dwell time at the left and right oscillation positions. It stops during oscillation, and during the centre dwell time, it fills the weld crater.
Trapezoid: The machine travels at all times, also during oscillation dwell time.
Triangle: The machine travels only during oscillation. During oscillation dwell time, the machine stops to fill the crater.
