Collaborative Robots for Welding?

There has been a lot of hype around collaborative robots over the last few years. More companies have come out with their version of collaborative or lightweight robots. The principal advantage of these robots is to be able to work alongside human workers. They don't need to use heavy duty fences and enormous security systems to safeguard people. The speed of motion and shape of a collaborative robot are designed to reduce or eliminate the impact that can occur if contact is made with its co-workers. Yet at the moment most of the applications for collaborative robots are still in material handling and basics tasks on the assembly chain. Can welding be done by a collaborative robot?
