Industrial Welding Tables Designed for Continuous Use

Ergonomic Welding Tables: Flexible & Modular

Our welding tables have a modular design and can be adapted to large and bulky assemblies using removable rails, table extensions and flexible base frames. Height adjustment as well as turning, swivelling and rotating functions enable ergonomic working and improve process reliability in day-to-day production.

Grey Cast Iron Precision with Lasting Dimensional Stability

The flat grey cast iron support surface ensures lasting dimensional accuracy. Stop elements and clamping devices can be positioned continuously in the X and Y directions without the constraints of a fixed grid. Grey cast iron has lower thermal expansion than steel, ensuring stable welding results. For stainless steel applications, our Al/Cu rails provide a contamination-free surface, prevent ferrous contamination and enable precise, repeatable workpiece positioning.

Robust & Safe: Welding Tables for Continuous Use

Solid rails provide maximum stability, while grey cast iron reduces impact noise and improves occupational safety. The tables are designed for intensive continuous use, even with changing operators. Our Al/Cu rails developed specifically for stainless steel are extremely durable, easy to clean and resistant to discolouration and foreign material deposits, ensuring reliable processes in stainless steel production.

Durable & Low-Maintenance: Grey Cast Iron with a Non-Stick Patina

With regular care, open-pored grey cast iron with a high graphite content develops a natural non-stick patina that reduces welding spatter adhesion. Cleaning becomes easier over time, extending the service life of the surface. Al/Cu rails also support contamination-free stainless steel processing, reduce cleaning effort and provide permanently clean workpiece support surfaces.

Welding Table Accessories: Cover Every Application with Just 25 Tools

Universal multipurpose clamping devices and stop elements. Around 25 tools cover applications for which other systems require hundreds of individual components. For stainless steel processing, we offer specially adapted accessories with brass or stainless steel contact surfaces to prevent contamination and ensure maximum material purity.

Protect Your Investment: A Modular Welding Table Without Full Replacement

Individual rails are replaceable, eliminating the need to replace the entire table if damage occurs. A proven design with no reported complaints.

Buy Welding Tables Direct from the Manufacturer

At FÖRSTER welding systems, you buy welding tables directly from the manufacturer without going through a dealer network. Every table is manufactured at our factory in Hohenstein-Ernstthal and undergoes complete quality control on site. This means no dealer markup, personal advice from the manufacturer and fast availability ex works. As an owner-managed family business with more than 35 years of experience, we stand for reliability, quality and Made in Germany.

Grey Cast Iron Instead of Perforated Plate: What Sets Our Welding Tables Apart

Most welding tables on the market use steel perforated plates with a fixed hole pattern of 16, 22 or 28 mm. The FÖRSTER system takes a different approach: solid grey cast iron rails with T-slots allow continuously adjustable positioning without fixed grid constraints. Grey cast iron is a special alloy with lower thermal expansion than steel. It significantly reduces impact noise and, with regular care, develops a natural non-stick patina that reduces welding spatter adhesion. Cleaning becomes easier over time, not harder. If a rail is damaged, it can be replaced individually, eliminating the need to replace the entire table.

Welding Tables for Stainless Steel: Contamination-Free Processing

For stainless steel processing, we offer rails made from an aluminium-copper alloy. These Al/Cu rails prevent ferrous contamination and rust, are easy to clean and ensure precise, repeatable results. We also supply clamping devices with brass or stainless steel contact surfaces, creating a fully contamination-free workstation.

Which Applications Are FÖRSTER Welding Tables Suitable For?

Our welding tables are used wherever repeatable quality and ergonomic working are essential: structural steelwork, metal fabrication, railing construction, vehicle manufacturing, tank and vessel construction, shipbuilding, rail vehicle manufacturing, machinery and plant engineering, and the offshore and wind energy sectors. The modular design with removable rails can be adapted to bulky assemblies of any size, from small frame-building projects to industrial series production. Removing individual rails improves access to tall and bulky assemblies, while flexible base frames allow the work surface to be raised, lowered, turned, swivelled and rotated.

Time Savings and Efficiency in Day-to-Day Welding

A streamlined range of accessories means shorter setup times. Around 25 universal clamping devices and stop elements cover applications for which other systems require hundreds of individual components. Cleaning and maintenance effort decreases over the table’s service life instead of increasing. A manageable accessory range gets you to the desired result faster, while combining multiple tables enables flexible workstation configurations for any production situation.

Our expertise – the difference in detail

The advantage of our welding tables

What makes a FÖRSTER welding table different? Four principles form the basis for everything our tables achieve: stepless positioning without grid constraints, materials with superior physical properties, a modular system that grows with your requirements, and an accessory concept that gets by with just 25 tools where others need hundreds of parts.

T-slot

Precise groove system for stepless positioning of all components

The patented T-slot rail system replaces classic perforated plates with a fixed grid. Clamping and stop elements can be positioned steplessly in X and Y directions, reaching every point on the work surface. No grid restrictions, no compromises in workpiece fixturing, faster setup times.

Material

High-performance rails and materials for precise and durable work

Solid cast iron rails, made from a special alloy with lower thermal expansion than steel. When cared for, the open-pored structure forms a natural non-stick patina against weld spatter. For stainless steel, we offer Al/Cu rails that prevent rust and contamination. The table doesn't age; it gets better.

Modularity

Sophisticated system solutions for flexible and ergonomic production processes

Rails individually removable for bulky assemblies, work surface expandable without a new table, flexible underframes with height adjustment, swivel, pivot, and rotation functions. Damaged rails can be replaced individually, eliminating the need for a complete replacement. A table that adapts to your production, not the other way around.

Frequently Asked Questions About FÖRSTER Welding Tables

What sets the FÖRSTER T-slot system apart from perforated-plate welding tables?

Perforated-plate systems (D16, D22 or D28) only allow clamping devices to be positioned within a fixed hole pattern. The FÖRSTER T-slot system enables continuously adjustable positioning in the X and Y directions without fixed grid constraints. In addition, our rails are made from solid grey cast iron rather than steel, resulting in lower thermal expansion, natural non-stick properties and significantly less impact noise.

Which Type of Welding Table Is Right for My Production?

That depends on your requirements for ergonomics and access to the workpiece. The 3D welding table is the versatile foundation for all standard welding and assembly tasks. If you weld assemblies from several sides, a rotary welding table is recommended. A height-adjustable lifting welding table is ideal for changing operators or ergonomic working. We would be happy to advise you personally on the configuration that best suits your production.

Why is a FORSTER welding table more cost-effective in the long run than a D28 perforated plate table?

The price of a FORSTER welding table is comparable to that of similar D28 perforated-plate tables. However, because it requires significantly fewer accessories and has lower maintenance and cleaning costs, and because individual rails can be replaced instead of entire table tops, the total cost is significantly lower. The system pays for itself quickly, especially when used across multiple workstations.

Can I Test a FÖRSTER Welding Table or Arrange a Demonstration?

Yes. We offer personal consultations and demonstrations at our facility in Hohenstein-Ernstthal. There, you can experience the different table types, the T-slot system and our accessories in practice. Contact us and we will be happy to arrange an appointment.
