How a Tank Production Shop Eliminated Rework With Cobot Plasma Cutting | Hirebotics

Before automating, Tank Technologies relied on hand cutting to shape their products, a process fraught with inconsistency and inaccuracy. Dan Church, Senior Manufacturing Engineer, noted, "25% of our products are customizable, so we were getting a lot of volatility and inconsistency when cutting our heads and bases by hand." The CNC machines at their disposal could not accommodate the complex geometries required for their products, leading to a high rate of rework and scrap.

The adoption of the Cobot Welder provided the needed precision and flexibility. Dan Church explained, "The Cobot offered us all the accesses we need to get the geometry." After thorough research, Tank Technologies partnered with Hirebotics for the implementation, in part, for their robust support system. The transition to the cobot was smooth, with installation and initial operation commencing within just four hours, a testament to the system's user-friendly design.
