A new robotic welder in its steel shop is giving SPG a boost in meeting the fast-track construction schedules typical of many mission-critical projects. Currently used to produce the standard steel embed plates for SPG’s double tees, the robotic welder increases production speed, precision, and efficiency while maintaining the high standards of quality that have defined SPG for 60 years. The robotic welder performs at the equivalent of four human welders when operating at 100% capacity, and is designed so that it is always welding in one of two work zones.
