The present invention relates to a SCARA robot system to weld a support and a welding method according thereto, wherein the SCARA robot system on a deck automatically welds a support or a support pad having the support welded thereto. According to the present invention, the SCARA robot system to weld the support comprises: a welding robot including a main body, a first arm mounted on the main body, and a second arm coupled to the first arm; a welding torch mounted on the second arm; a recognizing unit recognizing the shape of the support or the support pad; and a control unit controlling the welding robot to move in a first and a second direction so that the welding robot can weld the support or the support pad recognized by the recognizing unit, to a hull. The SCARA robot system to weld the support and a welding method according to the above are used so as to weld the support or so that the support pad to the hull can be automated by the movable robot.
