Manufacturing Pioneers

Complex problems require innovative solutions.

For over 50 years, Melton Machine has been a pioneer in the manufacturing industry. We introduced CoboWeldTIG in 2017, and the CoboWeldMIG in 2019.

These robotic machines provide flexibility combined with a user-friendly framework for automated welding. That means someone with little to no PC or robot experience can program the Cobot in minutes.

We're with you every step of the way, from setup and training to ongoing support. We are the only manufacturer that sets up the CoboWeld machines and trains our customers.

Melton is a Universal Robot Certified System Integrator and CoboWeld is a certified UR+ solution.

Designing Robotic Automation Systems for 50+ Years

Melton Machine & Company has been on the leading edge of industrial technology since its founding in 1970 and has been designing industrial robotic automation systems for 50+ years. We design and manufacture systems in our 365,000-sq. ft. facility in the heart of the Midwest, in Washington, Missouri.

In 2017, we installed our first Cobot welding system, which can be used for a single application or shopwide. The easy-to-program Cobot, along with Melton’s proprietary CAP software, enables a welding shop to increase automation at a lower cost than other industrial robotic systems.

We design and build custom solutions, including tooling that can hold parts in place for joining, and we take pride in providing everything you need for your application. When your system is built, we invite you to our facility for comprehensive training, or you can choose to have our trained engineers and technicians set up and train your employees at your shop.

Consistent, Quality Welds. Every Time.

The welder shortage is hurting your business. And it’s not going anywhere.

Not only that, the quality of work that welders output isn’t consistently meeting standards.
