Bauromat Solves Customer's Integration Nightmare
Choosing the right integration partner is as important as the integration itself. One customer approached Bauromat after being left with a ill performing and unsafe system, this is the story of how the problem was solved.
Telford based robotic and automation solutions provider Bauromat, has successfully completed an installation of a robotic TIG welding system, featuring a KUKA robot, for a Staffordshire fabrications company Mec Com.
The installation completes an almost 3-year saga for Mec Com which involved unnecessary costs, stress and project delays, the result of choosing the wrong integrator.
The reason? Mec Com had selected an initial partner with no knowledge of automated welding and little knowledge of correct practice.
"We're delighted we've found a partner that can walk us through future projects and integration. The next thing we need to automate, we'll speak to Bauromat." said Mec Com MD Richard Bunce.
"We now have a solution and robotics is a field we can get involved in. The concept wasn't wrong, we just picked a bad partner."
Scrapping the original cell, Bauromat manufactured a system from scratch that solved all the issues of the customer's original needs and allowed them to become automation flag bearers.
