The paper illustrates general automation concepts for arc welding and the achieved level of automated arc welding at the manufacturing plants of German automotive subsuppliers and in the shipyard industry. Plans for future automation of welding tasks and present obstacles for the application of flexible manufacturing tools such as welding robots were inquired at 15 medium and large sized german car subsuppliers. The example of a German shipyard shows how to conduct welding applications at the level of a computer integrated manufacturing.
