FastRotator — Industrial Rotators for Heavy Metal Fabrication

Rotate heavy parts faster and safer — one operator, full control, no crane needed.

FastRotator is a Portuguese manufacturer of industrial rotary positioners (rotators) for the heavy metal fabrication industry. Our machines let a single operator rotate and reposition heavy parts quickly, safely and precisely during welding, painting, inspection and structural preparation — eliminating the accident risk of manual or crane-based rotation and freeing up the overhead crane for other tasks. Clients typically recover their investment within a few months through reduced labour costs and higher throughput, with welder productivity increasing by 35–40% on average.
Our range covers standard and semi-standard models from 1 to 12 tonnes (FR, ST and OHR series), face-to-face rotators (FFR) for long or asymmetrical components, and fully custom projects with no capacity limit. In 2026 we launched the WELD ROTATOR, a semi-automatic robotic welding station for structural steel beams that performs around 80% of the welding automatically, working alongside the rotator to deliver a continuous, one-operator welding cycle.
Trusted by leading fabricators worldwide including Faymonville, Liebherr, Nucor, Severfield and Manitowoc.

WELD ROTATOR + FastRotator — Robotic Welding and Rotation of Steel Beams

The WELD ROTATOR robotic welding station working alongside a FastRotator 3+3 ton rotator to weld and rotate a structural steel beam. The robot performs around 80% of the welding automatically while the rotator repositions the part, enabling a continuous single-operator welding cycle for heavy fabrication.
