and those look like normal robots used for assembly lines or welding, they don't look like normal machines, are they?

The extrusion has a T-slot profile very similar to 80-20. They were installed with the arms so they are likely sold by a safety guarding company. You could probably do the same thing with any T-slot extrusion.
They are Motoman HP6 robotic arms equipped with a resistance spot welder. The arm's head position is programmed using normal Cartesian coordinates (X,Y,Z) just like any other CNC machine. We also have the cage installed around our plasma cutter.
