Wolf Robotics

[6][5] Following the acquisition, Wolf Robotics was renamed Lincoln Electric Automation Inc.[7] Founded in 1944, Wolf Robotics operated under the name Heath Engineering and manufactured farm implement equipment using shape cutting products.

[4][8] In 1976, ESAB purchased Heath Engineering to make it their robotic welding division.

[9][10][1] The company's robotic-grade welding positioners have a load capacity of up to 100,000 kg (220,462 lbs), which are among the strongest in the industry.

[3][citation needed] It introduced robotics to the process of submerged arc welding.

[14][3][2][15] In 2021, Wolf Robotics worked with the United States Army Research Laboratory and BAE Systems to develop an Agile Manufacturing Robotic Welding Cell for aluminum structures that make up the hull of a combat vehicle.
