Meet the Blaze MIG welding cobots
7-axis maneuverability
Blaze: 1550 mm / 61" reach including MIG torch
Blaze MAX: 2159 mm / 85" reach including MIG torch


Why 7-axis makes a difference

More welds per setup. Fewer fixtures. Less downtime.
Most welding cobots have 6 axes. Productive Robotics has 7 — giving you the torch positioning to access angles that 6-axis robots simply can't. Only a 7-Axis robot can reach around all sides of fixtures and workpiece obstacles without restriction.

Repeatability: +/- 0.1 mm (.004”)

Watch how Railex transformed their welding operation
Railex Conveyor Corp, a 70-year-old manufacturer of garment handling systems, faced a common challenge: large production runs were burning out their experienced welders. Running 1,000-piece batches meant eight-hour days of repetitive welding that took a physical toll on their team.
Results at a glance
Three welders freed from the tedium of production welding to focus on higher-value work, while one operator handles the production runs with Blaze.
Why Railex chose Productive Robotics
After evaluating multiple welding automation options and companies, Railex selected the Blaze welding cobot from Productive Robotics for three reasons:
Easy to work with
"They were easy to deal with" — straightforward sales process and responsive support throughout.
Complete solution
"The product seemed very complete" — everything needed was included, no hidden costs or surprises.
Proven experience
"They seemed farther along the experience chain" — more real-world deployments than competitors.

"If you've been a welder for thirty years, the last thing your body can tolerate is 8 hours of production welds."
— Richard, President, Railex Conveyor Corp
"Consistent, well-penetrated welds over and over again. You don't have to worry."
— Julian, Railex certified production welder

Team adoption
One of Railex's biggest concerns was how their team would react. With welders ranging from 2-3 years to 30+ years of experience, introducing cobot welding could have caused friction.

Collaborative Approach
• Talked to the team before purchasing
• Positioned it as an opportunity, not a threat
• Framed as relief from repetitive, demanding work

Positive Results
• Team has fully embraced the technology
• Skilled welders focus on more interesting work
• Physical strain reduced for long-tenured employees

What's next for Railex?
"New opportunities, new products. We've gone into some new products because of the ability to do this kind of robotic welding, and we're looking forward to continued growth"
— Richard, President, Railex Conveyor Corp
