You might be able to use a router for mig welding, If the mig gun was mounted vertical (nozzle down).
The problem would be that welding robots (the robots I've ran) are 5/6-axis bots. A router is prob. only 3-axis.
The reason the mig bots have so many axis is to control things like undercut etc...
I'm not saying that it can't be done, with a router, it might work for lots of simple repetive welds?

Hi,
The main issue as I see it is that for anything other than a linear weld I.E. in a totally straight line it's not going to work.
I do lots of manual welding and you have to constantly change the torch angle, especially on curves.
If you want to build a 5 axis head to hold your torch then you got it made.
Otherwise you could manually set your torch angle and weld straight lines.
