SWR Faster, Bigger Welds – How to Maximize Productivity & Profitability

Fabrication shops in energy, oil & gas, shipbuilding, offshore and heavy industrial contracting are all looking for ways to become more efficient, profitable, and competitive.

A game changing technology arrives in the market on occasion, and for these fabrication shops to realize benefits like higher deposition rates & deposition efficiencies and increasing factored diameter inches (FDI) to 350-500 per shift on carbon steel pipes, has a significant impact on their day-to-day business operations.

Expanding the capabilities of a shop’s SWR system increases heavy fabrication productivity by increasing weld deposition rates while delivering an excellent weld quality. You are likely seeing a pattern of positive results in this post, right?

The pattern and positive results are real. The right SWR system shops need today allows for them to aggressively bid on new projects and increase margin on jobs, even the ones already won.

Combine this with little things like lower costs by reducing weld and material handling costs, a smaller footprint in a shop, integration with up to 5 positioners and assisted seam tracking and height control, and all of a sudden, a shop realizes the productivity & profitability we’ve mentioned.

Let’s connect and start the conversation and get your fabrication shop on track to become more efficient and profitable.
