Fabricated Metals

Throughout the fabrication process, welding and joining applications are often essential for sturdy assembly during the creation of a metal product. With robotics from FANUC, you’ll achieve effective, precise welds that hold fast.

FANUC arc welding robots are equipped with smart technology including sensors and ArcTool software to promote maximized productivity and quality with your welds.

Use FANUC spot welding technology to grant your metal fabrication shop the ability to achieve more consistent welds, access difficult locations, and improve cost efficiency, all while using less floor space.

Achieve high-precision, high-efficiency cuts for your fabrication needs with the use of FANUC cutting robots.

Form sheet metal into essential components and finished products with consistent, repeatable results when you integrate FANUC robots into your operations.

Keep your fabrication shop operating smoothly with automated machine tending robots from FANUC. When you automate machine tending processes, you’ll save time on tasks such as:

Whether you work with structural metal fabrication or sheet metal fabrication, you’ll meet your material handling needs with robotic solutions from FANUC. Moving heavy materials can be dangerous and require large amounts of time and energy; automating this process will allow you to more efficiently, easily, and safely maneuver your materials around your shop.

Automated inspection and measuring solutions from FANUC ensure the components of your fabrications consistently meet quality standards. Simple installation and operation makes it easy to integrate vision inspection systems for faster, more accurate, and more reliable quality assurance.

From grinding and deburring to sanding and polishing, our robots are equipped to fulfill your finishing needs with high accuracy and repeatable results. Eliminate health hazards and improve overall fabrication quality by automating these processes.

Automating critical elements of your metal fabrication shop is a cost-effective way to achieve optimal precision, efficiency, and productivity.

This process typically takes sheet metal and, through processes such as cutting, forming, and assembly, transforms the material into various metal fabrication products. Sheet metal fabrication can be a cost-effective alternative to the casting process, especially for parts that are hollow or flat.

Even with custom sheet metal fabrication processes, less material is wasted compared to other part production methods. Automated fabrication of sheet metal can cut costs and improve efficiency even further.

Sheet metal fabricated parts are often essential in industries such as:

When it comes to fabricating custom parts, our robots are equipped to consistently meet your requirements regarding size, shape, design, quantity, and more.

Whether you are working with small part casting or fabricating entire pieces of equipment, integrated metal fabrication robots reduce your margin for error and improve productivity.

The use of Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machines provides your shop with cutting-edge precision machining and higher performance. Enhance the surface quality and cost-effectiveness of your metal fabrication operations with CNC machines and robots that meet your needs.

Because metal fabrication is a versatile process, shops can manufacture virtually any product or part that uses sheet metal. However, some of the most common applications are listed below.

Components for vehicle construction, modification, and repair are often fabricated. Automated solutions make it easy for fabrication shops to ensure quality, precision, and consistency in the manufacturing of parts such as:

With CNC machining, the production of fabricated parts and equipment is made more efficient and precise, reducing the risk of costly, dangerous errors. From manufacturing individual parts to assembling heavy-duty vehicles, this industry benefits from the reliability and consistency afforded by automated metal fabrication.

Regardless of what they’re transporting, it’s critical for pipes to be properly manufactured to reduce the risk of leaks or spills. Using robots and CNC technology to fabricate metal pipes and fittings ensures optimal performance and safety during assembly and after installation.

Fabricated metal frames can be custom-made to fit any opening, minimizing wasted materials and improving security. These frames are often fabricated to be more durable and precise, and their construction benefits from automated processes to ensure quality.

With metal fabrication industrial automation, your shop can achieve the aforementioned benefits that coincide with improved employee performance, customer satisfaction, and information-based operations.

By adopting CNC machine tending and robotics for fabrication, you will reduce the risk of injury on the job for your employees while also limiting strain on your workforce by delegating tedious, high-precision tasks to machines. In doing so, you also improve the safety of your shop, thereby boosting the morale of your employees and demonstrating your commitment to their performance and well-being.

When you automate fabrication processes, you increase your shop’s levels of productivity, efficiency, and repeatability. Consistently delivering on your customers’ projects in a timely fashion and with minimal errors will bolster your reputation, resulting in improved customer relations that may even encourage advocacy and referrals.

Another benefit of automation in your metal fabrication shop is an enhanced ability to collect and analyze relevant data. By integrating FANUC CNC products and software solutions, you will be able to more effectively monitor operational data, giving you opportunities to address inefficiencies and make data-driven decisions to improve your bottom line.
