Case Study: Heavy Industrial Contractor Forced to Look at New Solutions – Increased Productivity 300%

The customer voice says it all, there is no better product advertising, promotion or endorsement than what an actual customer can say. On their SWR purchase, Ganotec-Muga Fab was able to increase their pipe welding productivity up to 300%, lower their repair rates to 0.5%, reduce dependency on highly skilled welders, and increase margins on the projects they have already won.

Ganotec-Muga Fab approached Novarc because they needed to find a way to overcome the challenge of finding skilled labour in an increasingly challenging market. They also had to increase fabrication shop productivity with less welders and to find a solution that would allow an average welder to produce the same quality while increasing the quantity of welds as a highly skilled welder could.

The Solution – When they came across Novarc, Ganotec-Muga Fab was looking for a solution that would address their challenges around increasing shop productivity and finding skilled labour. With the smallest footprint in the industry, the Spool Welding Robot (SWR) is a collaborative welding machine designed specifically for 1G welding and it was the right fit. By reducing the repair rates to 0.5%, customers can recover around $150,000/yr back onto their bottom-line. “For the past 10 years, our repair rates for the fabrication shop have been just below 2%. But if we are looking at just the SWR, the repair rate is about 0.5% when welding 12” – 36”, carbon steel and chrome pipes”, says Cartier. Ganotec-Muga Fab is fabricating piping in accordance with ASME B31.1, ASME B31.3 & CSA Z662.
