PEMA VRWP-C compact robot solution brings efficiency to Western Baltija Shipbuilding
Western Baltija Shipbuilding, a proficient and modern shipbuilding company from Lithuania, invested in the first PEMA solution a full decade ago. The latest investment, PEMA VRWP-C compact robot solution, has ensured efficiency, time savings, and excellent welding quality for the client.
Western Baltija Shipbuilding, part of Western Shipyard which belongs to BLRT Grupp, offers a wide range of services and solutions, such as vessels and hulls, for shipbuilding.
To successfully respond and exceed the needs of their clients, the company has combined their strong experience with modern technology: after investing in the PEMA Panel line a decade ago, Western Baltija Shipbuilding has since equipped their shipyard with PEMA VRWP-X2 and VRWP-C robotic welding portals.
The extensive expertise has also carried the company during the unusual and undoubtedly challenging year of 2020; good cooperation with clients of different sizes has enabled a stable workload and continuation of production.
“Of course, there have been some adjustments during this year. However, we have been able to reduce the risks and have quite a positive year thanks to our wide customer base: even when some markets have had to postpone their investments, we have maintained our production”, explains Vitalij Frolov, the Director of Western Baltija Shipbuilding.
PEMA VRWP-C replaces manual work, boosts efficiency and quality
The latest investment, PEMA VRWP-C, was delivered to Klaipeda shipyard during spring 2019. PEMA VRWP-C is a compact vision robot solution, optimal for micro panel welding. According to Mr. Frolov, the company has been extremely satisfied with the order – starting from the installation phase.
“The installation of PEMA VRWP-C only took a couple of days. We were well prepared to receive the order and the simplicity of the solution made the commissioning period smooth and easy”, says Mr. Frolov.
