Building the Backbone of AI Infrastructure: How Intelligent Welding Cells Power HAC & CAC Systems

Traditional robotic welding systems were built for ideal conditions, not the real-world conditions most fabricators live in. They rely on a repeatable process, which means even small variations in part fit-up from upstream fabrication can throw off the entire program. In high-mix, structural work like HAC and CAC frames, that kind of variation is inevitable.
