WeldCube and Pathfinder — software for welding data management and offline robot programming
Country: Austria · Model: WeldCube / Pathfinder
The WeldCube software package collects, documents and analyses welding data and manages the fleet of machines, while Pathfinder programs and simulates robotic cells offline. Together they cover production from weld planning to final quality control, based on IT standards, data protection and a scalable architecture. They are intended for serial and critical welding with documentation and traceability requirements.

Description
WeldCube Air runs in the cloud without a complex installation and opens from a PC or mobile devices. The platform stores and restores machine configurations, shows the process, errors and warnings in real time, calculates productivity by arc-on time and consumption over periods of up to 31 days, and keeps WPS and welder qualifications. WeldCube Premium collects all data with traceability down to the product and weld, shows the status of each weld as a “traffic light”, builds statistics, exports PDF and passes data to MES/ERP through a web API. WeldCube Centrum manages users and rights centrally, with login by key card, key fob, the WeldConnect app or NFC, and by the manufacturer's data saves up to 90 % of the time spent on setting up users. Navigator guides the welder with step-by-step visual instructions and stops welding in case of a defect until the foreman has checked it; it works with the TPS/i, iWave, including the WF 25i Dual, and Fortis.
How to choose
The module is chosen by task. For an overview of the fleet and WPS without your own servers, WeldCube Air is enough; for traceability down to each weld you need Premium, and for access by cards, Centrum. Integration with MES/ERP is provided by the WeldCube API, which passes prepared, historical and current data from the TPS/i, iWave, Premium and Centrum, and the TPS/i supports OPC UA and MQTT. Pathfinder is needed when a new robot program has to be written and checked on a digital twin without stopping the cell.

FAQ
By how much does Pathfinder reduce robot downtime?
By the manufacturer's data, offline programming on a digital twin gives up to 90 % less downtime. The program is checked for collisions, the cycle time is calculated, and the code is exported for common robot brands.
Does WeldCube support older welding machines?
WeldCube Premium works with current and many older series of the manufacturer's machines.
Where is WeldCube Air data stored and is it protected?
In the cloud of a provider certified to ISO 27001, in compliance with European data protection rules.
Is there a mobile app for calculating welding settings?
Yes, WeldConnect for iOS and Android calculates MIG/MAG and TIG parameters and manages jobs.
