Abstract: The invention originates in the field of resistance welding technology, among other means by means of welding robots 1, for use in roll seam welding, projection welding or spot welding, and has to do with accommodating components for operation inside the housing 2 of the welding tongs. Taking the demands in terms of weight into account, the object of the invention is to achieve the most effective possible utilization of space for the housing 2 of the welding tongs carried by the welding robot. The housing 2 of the welding tongs is given a module 3 for this purpose. This module 3 includes modular components that are relevant to performing the welding process that is monitored by the welding controller.
