Why, did you find out which one it is? I suspect I know, but I'm not sure. I'm thinking it is a Liburdi Dimetrics.

Pretty much.

With welding machines, they typically call them "automatic or automated" or "robotic". Basically, robotic does it all. You push a button and walk off. Of course this is something that usually won't work with most situations, but will in few. Then the automatic ones are machines that you setup and will watch, possibly making adjustments as it welds. In other words, you may bump the tungsten in or out a bit, side to side, maybe up or down on heat, etc. On some you can jog the wirespeed a bit also.

I don't think that robots will be taking my job anytime soon though. They typically only work on very basic shapes and designs, or they will require very precise fits...usually machined fits. The human welder can eleminate the need to such precise fits because he is much more able to make changes on the fly and interpret the visual appearance of the puddle. I've worked many places that had robotic or automatic welders, and often wound up doing the programming on them....however, when it was all set up, I went back to manual welding elsewhere in the company.
