Robotshop CNC Customer Applications: Shipbuilding Industry
  • Robotshop CNCs are great for marine and shipbuilding manufacturers
  • Sending fabrications to 3rd party fabricators are unreasonable in costing and expenses
  • Investing in Robotshop CNC will assist in saving large sum of expenses
  • Higher duty cycle time, because parts can be fabricated instantly
  • Learning CNC Operation takes only a day to master

Nowadays, many of the shipbuilders manufacture and supply a wide range of marine and naval ships, provides shiprepair services ranging from emergency repair to annual docking. The company requires designing and fabricating a tremendous amount of mild steel, aluminum and stainless steel.

CNC is a must in a shipbuilding industry, because it will assist in providing extremely fast fabrication process and able to complete in time.

What is the problem without owning your own CNC?
For example, your company recieved numerous orders for aluminium boats, each in roughly 40 feet long. Your company previously sent its digital designs to a offshore CNC Company for fabrication of ship parts and components, and later sent back after cutting.

This limits your company in flexbility of modifying any design if it is founded to have mistakes and can't be undo-ed easily. In addition, sending for fabrications to offshore or even local will cause you alot of transport expenses, as well as waste of time.

Maybe, your company also has a few factories scattered around the state, of different manufacturing lines. Gathering all designs from different factories and sending it for 3rd party fabricators isn't quite optimized.

Also, certain parts which are small are usually manually fabricated, increasing the risk of cancers obtained from poisonous fume gases during cutting. How can your company find a way to save considerable time and the expense of another manufacturing step?

The Best Solution!

Ideally, your company can accomplish these goals by investing in Robotshop CNC. With a combo high definition plasma torch and oxyfuel torch, it will be able to deliver accurate and precise robotic fabrication of mill steel, aluminium and stainless steel.

With 90% Duty Cycle - eg. very little maintenance and breakdown, it is the perfect solution for all shipbuilders.

Benefits:
The new system produced 4 important benefits.

  1. Production speed dramatically improved.
  2. Dross cleanup was significantly reduced versus its conventional hand method.
  3. Flexible part manufacturing obtained.
  4. Saving numerous costs on transport and fabrication.

As your company's primary metal cutting machine, all factories of different locations can sendtheir designs for fabrication in one factory, often running for 5-7 hours a day. Within 2 weeks, Robotshop CNC achieved up to more than 200 pcs of part.

CNC operator ‘Anuar’ states, “With Robotshop CNC in hand, I will be able to deliver better quality ships to its customer, and allowing more days from dateline. It does a fine job. I took less than a day to learn how to use Robotshop CNC, and now I operate professionally. Its’ colorful yet simple RobotCNC Controller Software allows me to take control of the CNC well. Amazingly, we can cut perfect 39mm mill steel at 90 degree with Robotshop CNC’s MAX 200 Plasma Cutter."
