We noted before Austin Weber's article on semiautomatic welding as a good option for some shops. It bears remention. "Fully automated welding is often not ideal for every application." Indeed. But "semiautomated welding systems are a great option, because they can double the output of a skilled manual welder while still maintaining a high level of control." Weber notes preconfigured cells and cobots. Perhaps weld sequencing should also be noted.
