The Danish renewable energy company Bladt Industries has placed a significant order for Robotic Welding of large structures.
The order includes six fully automated Inrotech-C&B(Column&Boom), equipped with KUKA Robots, Lincoln Power Units and Enabl Tower Structures. This solution is specifically developed for automatic multipass welding of plate joints (butt-joints).
Significant investment in a modern automated welding production like this is part of Bladt Industries bigger development initiative and future strategy.
The Inrotech-C&B automated technology reduces unpleasant manual work and secures a consistent high-quality welding result. The customized solution is designed to optimize thick plate joining for monopile production.
“Inrotech could offer the best solution for our needs and they have been flexible and supportive during the whole decision-making process. Our team reached the final decision based on the feasibility for our installation including the technical acumen demonstrated, and we were pleased with good cooperation between the teams involved.”, says Søren Hermansen, Senior Project Manager at Bladt Industries.
As a part of the investment, Inrotech provides support for welding parameters and the station’s lifecycle services.
The investment covers a maintenance contract that includes annual maintenance, updates, and remote online support. Additionally, Inrotech delivers production support, training, and installation supervising, tailored to Bladt Industry’s requirements.
“We are honored to be part of the significant development for Bladt at Lindoe in Denmark. Our roots were at Odense Steel Shipyard in Lindoe and returning by supporting significant growth in the green sector is exciting.
We have for years supplied the wind industry with robotic welding solutions and is a trendsetter for robotic welding in the world in offshore wind. To participate in the green energy transition by securing large wind farms globally brings good perspectives for our company”, says Thomas Bøgner, Sales Director Inrotech.
The automated solution will be delivered and ready for production during spring 2022.
