Heavier steel modules use welded or bolted corner posts and beams, and that welding is where cells and collaborative robots come in. A cobot works next to a person instead of behind a fence, which suits shops that run many short jobs. This is shop equipment, so the buyer is usually a fabricator or module plant, not a building owner. Ask for a demo on parts like yours before you compare prices.
