ALM Positioners manufactures heavy-duty welding positioners and is the first and only company to earn the designation of Path Robotics' Preferred Positioner Partner. Its positioners are paired with Path's AW3 autonomous AI welding system, creating turnkey weld cells that intelligently adapt to each part and weld path without reprogramming; enabling high-mix, multi-pass welding automation for customers such as TYCROP. ALM provides project coordination, installation, and on-site commissioning for combined Path+ALM cells; Path provides the AI welding intelligence. The partnership was formalised April 30, 2025 and the first joint customer deployment (TYCROP) was announced May 6, 2025.
