Joint Identity
Every joint gets an ID that follows it to the record.
CATFISH OS / WELD
Weld
Plan Welds From Geometry
Geometry, approved procedures, sensing and motion in one connected welding workflow.
WHAT IT DOES
From CAD to Completed Weld
CAD, joint, procedure, path, sensing, execution and verification run as one workflow. Every step is visible on screen and traceable to the job.
USED BY · WELDING ENGINEERS, ROBOT PROGRAMMERS AND QUALITY STAFF
CAPABILITIES
What Weld Does
Weld operates within the approved procedure and configured process limits for the application.
WPS Library
Approved procedures stored and assigned per joint.
Seam Correction
Applies configured path corrections within the approved welding procedure, joint acceptance criteria and process limits.
Weld Sequencing
Orders welds around reach, fixtures and heat input.
Verification
Parameters, corrections and inspection status saved to Proof.
CONNECTIONS
Where Weld Sits
Weld connects joint geometry, approved procedures, sensing, motion and Proof.
WORKFLOW
From CAD Joint to Digital Record
CAD describes where the joint should be. Catfish sensing determines where the joint actually is. Deterministic robot control executes the approved operation.
- 01
CAD Geometry
Import manufacturing geometry.
- 02
Sensed Seam

- 03
Alignment
Reconcile nominal geometry with the real workpiece.
- 04
Robot Welding
Execute the approved robotic operation.
- 05
Completed Weld
Finish the programmed seam.
- 06
Quality Check
