igm Robotersysteme AG :: Leading European Experts in Industrial Welding Robots

igm Robotersysteme AG is an Austrian manufacturer specializing in industrial robotic welding and cutting systems. Founded in 1967 and headquartered in Wiener Neudorf, Austria, the company has over 55 years of experience as one of the leading providers of complete robotic welding solutions in Europe and worldwide. igm is known for its high-quality, sensor-controlled robotic systems designed for demanding industrial applications, particularly in heavy engineering, automotive, railway, construction machinery, and general metal fabrication sectors.

The company offers turnkey robotic welding installations, from individual robotic cells to large-scale, multi-robot production lines. igm systems are recognized for their robustness, precision, and advanced seam-tracking technology, which ensures high weld quality even on complex geometries or imperfectly positioned parts.

Key robot-based products and solutions include:

• QIROX® Robotic Welding Systems: igm’s modern robotic platform featuring high-performance 6-axis robots optimized for arc welding. Available in various payload and reach configurations, these systems support MIG/MAG, TIG, and plasma welding processes.
• Sensor-Controlled Welding Robots: Equipped with advanced laser seam tracking, arc sensing, and vision systems for adaptive welding on varying workpieces.
• Complete Robotic Cells and Lines: Fully integrated solutions including positioners, workpiece fixtures, safety enclosures, and advanced control software for coordinated multi-robot operation.
• Specialized Applications: Systems for large-component welding (e.g., railway wagons, excavators, wind turbine towers) and automated cutting solutions.

igm emphasizes a “one-stop shop” philosophy — designing, manufacturing, and integrating the robots, welding power sources, positioners, software, and safety technology in-house or through close partnerships. This integrated approach ensures optimal system performance and long-term reliability. The company also provides comprehensive after-sales service, training, and modernization of existing systems.
