Welding
Welding Overview
Welding is a manufacturing process used to join two or more pieces of metal (or sometimes other materials) by applying heat, pressure, or both so the materials melt and fuse together as they cool, forming a strong, permanent bond. Unlike fasteners like bolts and rivets, welding actually fuses the pieces at a molecular level.
There are many welding methods, but the most common include:
Robotic Welding
Uses automated, programmed equipment to produce fast, repeatable, high-quality welds
MIG welding
Feeds a continuous wire electrode and shielding gas; widely used in manufacturing
Tig Welding
Uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode for precision work
Spot Welding
A type of resistance welding where an electrical current passes through two electrodes that clamp the metal sheets together
Benefits of Welding
At Haake Manufacturing, robotic arc welding is part of our precision sheet metal fabrication services, used to join components like steel, stainless steel, and aluminum in high-volume production runs.
We also offer MIG, TIG, and Spot welding services to serve our customers’ welding projects.
Robotic, Mig/TIG, & Spot Welding
Robotic Welding
Key Benefits
- Highly consistent weld quality because robots follow the same programmed path every time
- Higher productivity and faster production cycles
- Reduced human error and fatigue
- Ideal for medium- to high-volume production
BEST USE CASES
Large production runs, repetitive welds, automotive parts, industrial manufacturing, electrical enclosures
MIG / TIG Welding
Key Benefits
Versatile processes that work on many metals (steel, stainless steel, aluminum)
Strong, reliable welds
MIG is fast and efficient for longer weld seams
TIG provides high-precision and clean welds
BEST USE CASES
Structural components, fabrication projects, precision parts
Spot Welding
Key Benefits
- Very fast process for joining sheet metal
- Requires no filler material, lowering consumable cost
- Creates strong localized welds
- Easily repeatable in mass production
BEST USE CASES
Automotive body panels, appliances, sheet-metal assemblies
HAAKE’S APPROACH TO Welding
Our comprehensive welding approach is designed for continuous operation, delivering consistent weld quality and efficiency for medium-to-high volume production runs.
We use trumpf for Uncompromising Quality
Our team operates the Trumpf’s TruArc Weld 1000. It’s an automated arc welding cell for small and medium series that’s easy to operate and highly productive, which means our team can get started and complete your welding projects quickly and efficiently.
Leverage Our Wide Range of Welding Capabilities
Haake supports multiple welding processes, including MIG, TIG, resistance, and spot welding, which allows us to work with a variety of metals such as steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.
Our range of welding services gives you flexibility for different materials and part designs, an ease of working with complex weldments, and partnering with only one supplier for multiple welding needs.
Experience Reliable Delivery and Production Performance
We offer 99% on-time delivery and processes designed to maintain consistent production quality. This means your team can keep their own production lines running, reduce your risk of supply delays, and enjoy more predictable project timelines.
