Siegmund presented a real innovation at this year’s Schweißen & Schneiden: The Smart Leg, an electrically and infinitely height-adjustable table leg, celebrated its world premiere. If you missed it, don’t worry: it can also be seen at Schweisstec.
This new development could become a game changer in welding table technology. The Siegmund Smart Leg combines modern electronics, enormous load capacity and intelligent control – developed to fundamentally improve work in the metalworking industry.

Strength meets flexibility
With a high load capacity and flexible height adjustment, the Smart Leg opens up new possibilities in terms of ergonomic welding workstations. The robust design ensures that stability is maintained even under high loads. Thanks to its universal design, the Smart Leg can not only be integrated into new workstations, but can also be easily retrofitted to existing welding tables. This means that users can benefit from the advantages at any time, regardless of the existing table configuration.
Technical highlights at a glance
– Electric, stepless height adjustment
– 300 mm stroke
– Load capacity: 4 t per foot
– Swivel plate feet for maximum stability
– Control panel with display and emergency stop
– Ready for immediate use – optionally with 18 V battery system or mains operation
– Suitable for tables with four, six or eight legs
– Compatible with Siegmund System 16, 22 and 28
– Can be retrofitted to all welding tables

Intelligent control for precise work and more convenience
The Smart Leg control system offers great flexibility. Each table leg can be controlled individually so that the table height can be adapted precisely to the workpiece and the work process. Even complex inclined positions can be set automatically – a great advantage for ergonomic working in variable positions. The integrated auto-leveling function guarantees precise horizontal alignment of the table surface, regardless of load distribution or surface. For large-format applications, several tables can be linked in master-slave mode and controlled synchronously.
– Individual control of each foot for targeted adjustments
– Automatic tilting up to 8°
– Auto-levelling: automatic levelling of the tabletop
– Master-slave operation: several tables can be controlled synchronously
Programmable functions for maximum efficiency
With its programmable features, the Smart Leg brings welding table technology into the networked future. Individual user profiles can be called up at the touch of a button via RFID, while the memory function saves recurring working heights and provides them reliably at any time. In addition, the open interface enables direct integration into modern production systems – whether digitally or analog-controlled. This means that the welding table is not just a tool, but an active component of automated production processes.
– RFID for retrieving individual height settings
– Memory function for up to four saved positions
– Interface for integration into production systems (digital/analog signals)

Background
Bernd Siegmund GmbH is an owner-managed family business with over 30 years of history. With five locations across Europe and a sales network in over 60 countries, the company has a global presence in welding and clamping tables. Two highlights among many are, for example, the use of Siegmund welding tables in rocket construction for the aerospace company SpaceX or for repair work in the White House in Washington. Siegmund’s welding and clamping table systems are based on a sophisticated and flexible modular system and, in addition to machine, plant, metal and vehicle construction, are particularly in demand in prototype construction and series production with and without robot connection.
