A welding system is provided. The welding system includes a fixture, a plurality of pressure blocks, and a laser welder. The fixture is configured to grasp a roof panel and transition to an advanced position in order to align the roof panel with a roof rail along a weld line. The plurality of pressure blocks are movably secured to the fixture such that advancing the pressure blocks when the fixture is in the advanced position provides a compression force between the roof panel and roof rail along the weld line to prevent distortion during a welding operation. The laser welder is configured to weld the roof panel to the roof rail along the weld line.
