Best Answer

A welding positioner is a work motion device that places the weldment in a location and at an angle that allows for optimum welding parameters to be used (faster travel speed, increased current, ect.) Essentially, it places the weldment so that it is in a 1G, 1F, or 2F position.

Four common types of welding positioners include tilt-tables, turning rolls, head and tailstock, and universal balance positioners.
