Overview
The Almega V120 is an industrial arc welding robot manufactured by DAIHEN Corporation, a Japanese welding and power-conversion equipment maker founded in 1919. Part of DAIHEN's long-running Almega series of 6-axis articulated welding arms, the V120 was designed for automated arc welding in industrial manufacturing. DAIHEN markets the line under its OTC brand and distributes it globally, including through OTC DAIHEN in the United States.
Flagship features
