Welding torch, welding system, method of producing a welding torch as well as computer-readable medium

A welding torch for a welding system comprising:

• a substantially spherical main body having an integrated coolant chamber in fluid communication with at least one coolant port, the substantially spherical main body being a joint head of a ball joint of the welding system.

A welding system comprising:

• a torch bracket;
• and
• a welding torch with a substantially spherical main body, the torch bracket having a socket of a ball joint, the socket receiving the substantially spherical main body of the welding torch in a spherically orientable manner thereby forming the ball joint.

A method of producing a welding torch comprising:

• providing an additive manufacturing device;
• and
• controlling the additive manufacturing device to produce a substantially spherical main body of the welding torch while simultaneously forming a coolant chamber in the substantially spherical main body in an integral manner.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions configured to cause an additive manufacturing device to produce a substantially spherical main body of the welding torch while simultaneously forming a coolant chamber in the substantially spherical main body in an integral manner.
