Abstract

Apparatus for manipulating a welding torch independently along two axes. A torch support is provided to carry a welding torch or the like, and a motor is operatively coupled to position the torch support along a first path of travel relative to the weld joint. Another motor is operatively coupled to position the torch along a second path of travel orthogonal to the first path of travel.
