Dear readers,

The welding torch is to the welder what the scalpel is to the surgeon: It needs to be well balanced, fit comfortably in the hand and be able to be controlled with precision. But whether it’s a manual, stationary or robot-assisted welding application, we draw on over 70 years of expertise in developing and manufacturing our torches and maintain the highest of quality standards. And we do all this from our Fronius production site in Pettenbach, Austria.

The range of Fronius welding torches—the hot topic in this edition of the Weld Informed newsletter—stretches from handy, lightweight TIG welding torches through to robust robot welding torches, which reliably withstand high temperatures in continuous operation.

We have responded to the rapid increase in demand by doubling our production capacity. To see the journey a welding torch takes from design to production through to the final product, watch our new welding torch video!

Did you know that our welding torches are designed to have a particularly long service life and are subjected to rigorous testing? For this and more enlightening information relating to our welding torches, please see our current press release.

The thermal and mechanical forces that act upon wearing parts of the torch, such as contact tips and gas nozzles, are immense. So, what can be done to delay the inevitable demise of these parts for as long as possible? You can find the answers in this month's blog.

And if something does need to be replaced at any point, you will find a comprehensive range of wearing parts tailored to your welding process and the relevant application on our website.

In addition to our welding torch portfolio, a range of high-end Fronius welding solutions will also be in the spotlight at the “SCHWEISSEN & SCHNEIDEN 2023” trade fair. For all the latest news on what we have planned for the fair, please visit our trade fair page! 

We hope you enjoy reading!

Your Fronius Weld Informed Team

Seventy Years of Austrian Expertise

Here at Fronius, we always have the ideal welding torch for our customers’ diverse needs and requirements. One thing all torches have in common, though, is how they combine innovative technology, long service life and repairability with maximum user comfort. What’s more, they are all developed and manufactured in Thalheim and Pettenbach, Austria.

School of Hard Knocks

Our welding torches are subjected to heat, drop and duty cycle tests, as well as gas shield, leakage and movement tests. When it comes to efficiency, safety, and reliability, our own requirements are significantly stricter than required by the relevant standards.

Optimized Adaptation Saves Money

The less often wearing parts like contact tips, gas nozzles, or the inner liners in the hosepacks need to be replaced, the better—this helps to protect the environment and saves money at the same time. We put four life-extending measures for wearing parts to the test.

The Right Wearing Part for Every Application

Original Fronius wearing parts not only extend the service life of your welding torch, they also reduce possible sources of errors and ensure high-quality welding results in the process.

Save the Date!
