OCTOPUZ® Steps

OCTOPUZ Steps is a weld sequencing software, providing step-by-step, enforceable instructions for weld operators, automatically syncing with the welding machine to set the correct job and deliver real-time feedback and weld data. This weld data is compared to defined validation rules, instantly verifying that the weld was completed correctly.

Avoid missing welds by guiding operators through each weld with enforceable checks
Validate welds are performed correctly by verifying completed welds against defined rules and instantly providing weld pass or fail results
Improve productivity across operators by providing an optimized weld order that every operator follows
Designed to work with ESAB Warrior Edge welding machines.

Step-by-step guidance with enforceable checks

Ensure Every Weld Is Completed

OCTOPUZ Steps guides operators through each weld in the correct order, requiring completion before advancing to the next step. Weld event data is validated against defined rules, helping eliminate missed welds and reduce costly rework.

Enforced weld order prevents skipped steps.
Pass/Fail validation confirms weld completion.
Clear operator instructions reduce interpretation errors.

Optimized weld order without added complexity

Increase Productivity at the Weld Cell

By defining the most efficient weld sequence upfront, OCTOPUZ Steps minimizes unnecessary movement and downtime. Operators spend less time deciding what to weld next and more time executing quality welds.

Optimized weld order improves workflow efficiency.
Reduced downtime between weld steps.
Increased throughput without changing equipment.

The right parameters - set automatically

Automatic Power Source Control

When connected to ESAB Warrior Edge power sources, OCTOPUZ Steps automatically sets the correct welding JOB for each weld step. This removes manual parameter selection and ensures every weld is performed exactly as specified by engineering.

Direct connectivity to ESAB Warrior Edge.
Automatic JOB and parameter selection per weld.
Arc-time data captured for validation and traceability.

One defined process. Consistent execution

Standardize Manual Welding Across Operators

OCTOPUZ Steps separates planning from execution. Welding engineers define the sequence once, and every operator follows the same instructions – regardless of experience level, shift, or location.

Centralized sequence creation by engineers.
Consistent execution across operators and facilities.
Ideal for regulated or critical weld applications.
