Robotic weld shaving uses a force-controlled robot equipped with a weld shaver tool to machine weld beads down to a controlled height.
The difference is precision and repeatability. Manual grinding depends on operator feel, often leaving high spots, uneven finishes, or excessive base material removal.
PushCorp’s weld shavers maintain constant contact and cutting force while guide wheels control the exact removal depth. This ensures the weld is shaved flush with the parent material—without vibration, heat distortion, or overcutting.
PushCorp’s robotic weld-shaving systems deliver repeatable finishes across steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other metals. Explore how automation transforms the process of weld removal across different materials and applications.
Shaves welds flush using a robot-mounted tool that maintains constant force and cutting height across complex part shapes.
Uses a robot to position and guide the part against a floor-mounted weld shaver for stable, consistent weld removal on large or heavy components.
Removes long, continuous welds on rail or track sections with controlled depth for smooth, uniform surfaces.
Processes large or heavy parts on a fixed gantry system to deliver consistent weld removal across wide surfaces.
Automating weld removal requires controlling both cutting depth and applied force to achieve a clean, flush finish without damaging the parent material.
PushCorp’s weld shavers are engineered for precision weld removal. Adjustable guide wheels set the exact cut height (above, below, or flush to the surface) while heavy-duty bearings withstand vibration and impact.
Pairing a weld shaver with a PushCorp compliance device ensures constant contact along welds and curved surfaces. The system automatically adjusts force to maintain smooth, chatter-free cutting.
In the PushCorp Demo Lab, manufacturers can validate their weld removal process, measure surface quality, and determine optimal cutting speeds before full-scale production.
PushCorp’s certified partners specialize in robotic weld removal, helping manufacturers integrate complete systems that are safe, efficient, and production-ready.
PushCorp has engineered many automated, weld-shaving applications for clients all over the world. Below, you will find videos from our Automation Lab specific to the Weld-Removal Application.
PushCorp’s weld shavers provide powerful, high-precision cutting for automated weld removal. Adjustable guide wheels and depth control allow consistent results on steel, stainless steel, and aluminum parts.
Maintaining constant force is essential for clean, controlled weld removal. PushCorp’s patented compliance devices automatically adjust contact pressure to match weld height and surface curvature.
Whether you’re exploring automation of material removal for the first time or upgrading your current process, our team is here to help you find the right tools and support to succeed.
