Fresh Metal boosts its fabrication offering with robotic welder investment

Full service sheet metal manufacturer, Fresh Metal, has enhanced its fabrication services by investing in a new, state-of-the-art robotic welder.

After experiencing an increase in demand for precision welding projects, Fresh Metal has invested in a two station Panasonic Tawers MAG 1600WG Welding Robot System, which will increase the company’s welding capacity by up to 30%.

The innovative robotic welder is a welcome addition in the company’s fabrication department, where it will undertake jobs for a number of high-profile clients, initially completing projects for one of the UK’s leading boiler manufacturers.

The machine has the ability to weld four times faster than current methods, speeding up and streamlining production, while reducing lead times for the client. The automated nature of the new equipment also means that engineers in Fresh Metal’s fabrication department will have the capacity to focus their expertise on other areas of the business.

Charles Corner, managing director of Fresh Metal, said: “The introduction of the two station Panasonic Tawers MAG 1600WG Welding Robot System is an incredibly exciting opportunity for Fresh Metal, and with the ability to increase capacity by up to 30%, the investment is sure to assist us in continuing to grow to become one of the leading sheet metal manufacturers in the industry. Members of the Fresh Metal team have been selected for specialist training to ensure the welder is in capable hands and performing to the best of its ability, producing high-quality weld finishes for our customers’ products.

“As we strive to consistently provide first-class results for our clientele, we are dedicated to keeping up with the latest developments in automation technology, and utilising it to become leaders in our field.”
