The new shop was specially built for production of Multiva tractor trailers. In conjunction with the expansion investment, the company made a far-reaching strategic decision to choose robotic welding as the production method for trailer bodies and frames. Before, these parts were welded manually. The objective is to further improve their already good productivity and quality. Pemamek Oy Ltd designed and delivered a heavy robot welding gantry which incorporates two identical work stations. In the stations, work pieces are automatically handled with two headstock-tailstock positioner pairs which are connected with rails. The loading capacity of the gantry is 5 000 kg, and it accommodates work pieces up to 17 metres of length. The welding robot is remotely programmed by means of 3D models from the customer’s product design department. The welding process is single MIG/MAG. Pemamek’s turn-key delivery included complete robot welding equipment with gantry structures, positioners, rails, robot programs, installation, operator training, and commissioning. Established 1997, Dometal Oy Ltd develops and manufactures high-quality Multiva-farming machinery: spring tine harrows, disc cultivators and large tractor trailers. New model series are constantly developed to the Multiva product family, and the existing series are expanded and developed all the time. Multiva farming machinery is used mainly in Finland, Sweden and in the Baltic countries.

Britoil followed an earlier PEMA automated flat panel line delivery with a repeat order for a further one-sided welding station, a stiffener welding station, and an upgrade to the existing stiffener welding portal to weld 3 stiffeners at a time instead of one. New delivery will boost production capacity and provide redundancy.

These FA type positioners will be equipped with high-level automated control system for demanding cladding and welding work. The positioner loading capacities are 250 tons and 120 tons. PEMA has already supplied the same customer with heavy-duty work-piece handling equipment. This repeat order illustrates PEMA’s commitment to long-term co-operation with global customers and its capability to deliver the best technology on the market. In addition to the positioners, PEMA also delivers new heavy-duty roller beds. Equipped with an automatic anti-drift function, the biggest bed has a maximum capacity of 850 tons.

Ltd, one of the world’s largest shipyards, invests in high tech flat panel line to finalise the initial stage of its giant yard project located in huge Changxing shipbuilding base. PEMA won the international bidding to supply the yard welding process core machinery. Delivered early 2010, the latest-technology PEMA flat panel welding stations will be used in two-sided butt-welding of special alloy plates, and simultaneous welding of several stiffener profiles. With the new facility in place, the Jiangnan Shipyard will expand its annual shipbuilding capacity from the current 800,000 deadweight tons to 4.5 million by 2010.
