Made in Germany – Made by SKS

For more than 30 years, SKS Welding Systems has been known as a reliable system partner for robotic arc welding. Our innovative power combined with a forward vision and customer-oriented development work have allowed us to establish an excellent reputation throughout the industry. 

Our concept: The combination of a modularly designed welding machine made of high-performance components with a functional torch series for single wire and dual wire welding.

Our systems are complemented by flexible software solutions for the documentation of welding data – from a stand-alone operation to network-integrated solutions. The welding machines and torch systems are compatible with all common welding robots.

What makes our products unique is their high reliability and long service life – because if there is one thing we don’t want, it’s a thriving repair and spare parts business.

Close to the customer, close to the South African market

South Africa is one of the largest market economies in Africa with a good infrastructure and positive market growth. This has made South Africa an attractive trade and investment destination for SKS Welding Systems products.
 
This general business environment and our own corporate objectives, form the basis for a further extension of SKS Welding Systems presence in South Africa. Our African based customers will have the support of a dedicated technical team to enhance our service and provide sound solutions to promote our product effectively.

All services will be managed by our customer center, SKS Welding Systems (Pty) Ltd. Our extended consulting, development and service capacities will be available for customers from July 1, 2019.

SKS Welding Systems (Pty) Ltd. Is located at Willow Road Business Park, Unit 27 Block B, 141-145, Willow Road, Fairview, Port, Elizabeth 6070.

Kaiserslautern, 16 December 2019

Customer Center opened in Spain and South Africa

With the opening of the SKS Soldadura Robotica Arco Voltaico S.L. and SKS Welding (Pty) Ltd, SKS continues to expand its subsidiary network.

SKS Customer Centers utilize local welding experts with high application-related competence. This highly qualified specialist staff, with the support from their technical team, SKS counteracts the trend of ever-decreasing availability of well-trained specialists. This country specific, solution-oriented support team creates the value-added resource for local customers to access expert knowledge at any time.

Customer Centers have the capability of weld parameter and process development for customer specific parts. Feasibility studies on prototypes, including a comprehensive welding test report in the local language for documentation purposes are part of the portfolio of services offered. In addition, the stocking of SKS product and genuine replacement parts, in country, completes the full value-added proportion that is offered to local customers.

With these two new openings, in Spain and in South Africa, SKS offers a high availability of local welding machine components and the practical application of SKS equipment through expert knowledge.

The owner-managed company SKS Welding Systems from Kaiserslautern has been serving industrial users of automated welding technology for 30 years. The focus of business activity is on the automotive and supplier industry. Since its founding in 1989, the welding technology specialist has secured a leading position in this technology sector with the practical implementation of its innovative ideas in the field of robot welding technology.
