"Right now we have a robot but we're replacing it with a cobot," Automation and Machine Technology Manager at global HVAC manufacturer Nailor Industries told us. "From what I've seen already, it's cutting our time in half."
Ready to double your output? Let's talk!
The realities of manual welding are often experienced within the health and quality of life of welders. Cobot Welder helps Metal Alliance take on the tough, repetitive jobs that are hardest on their team.
"We're 6-7 fold what we could do manually. It's been quite a good efficiency for us, that's for sure."
In Vegas? Come see what has the CEO of Metal Alliance is talking about, with the Cobot Welder powered by Beacon.
Last day to get hands on with Beacon-powered cobots here in Chicago! Booth #236341 at #IMTS2026 🦾
What happens when the part is bigger than the cobot’s work envelope?
You extend where the cobot can go.
Derrick walks through how our new linear rail does exactly that.
What does cobot automation look like when it goes beyond one machine?
See how a solution that started on the production floor has grown across their manufacturing operations.
Sometimes the best proof of whether automation works isn’t the first cobot; it’s what happens next.
MIG or TIG?
It’s one of the first questions that comes up when manufacturers start looking at cobot welding.
Our Sales Director, Dan Adams, breaks down where each process fits and why shops switch to MIG welding with Cobot Welder.
What metals can you actually weld with a Hirebotics cobot?
Certified Welding Supervisor, Colin McOdrum, breaks down what the Cobot Welder can handle, and why the answer has a lot more to do with the welding process than the robot.
Weld on Side A. Set up Side B. Then switch.
Alanna shows how an A/B workflow can keep production moving — giving the cobot work to do while the operator gets the next part ready.
Less waiting. Better use of the cobot and the person running it.

Don't mind Santiago – he's just vacuuming 👀
What if teaching a cobot could be as simple as using your phone?
We brought something new to IMTS this week. 👀
Stefan Pangourelias, gives a first look at a new Smart Teach method we’re exploring—using a phone to show the Cobot Painter where the work is.
It’s an early preview of what we’re working on, and we’re showing it live this week at Booth #236341.
The part moves. The cobot follows.
Robotics Engineer, Gaurav Shetty, gives us a quick look at line tracking. Beacon keeps the cobot in sync with a moving production line so the work doesn’t have to stop for the robot.
See it running live this week at IMTS, Booth #236341
Take a quick walk through what we brought to #IMTS2026! From welding, cutting, and painting to a few new ways Beacon is extending what cobots can do. Come see it in action at Booth #236341 🦾
#imts2026 is just a few days away! See us at Booth 236341 and get a hands-on demo the cobots your operators actually want to use.
Heading to IMTS 2026? Be sure to stop by Booth 236341 to rock out with the cobots and compete in hands-on demo challenges!
