BOOK A LIVE DEMO OF THE SWR
novarc-swr
SWR inproduction

The Spool Welding Robot (SWR) is a welding cobot designed specifically for pipe, small pressure vessel, and other types of roll welding. Companies that have invested in the SWR have increased their pipe welding productivity to 200-350 diameter inches per shift on carbon steel pipes, and 569-998 diameter inches per shift on stainless steel, and have dropped their repair rate to less than 1%. This is making our customers more competitive when bidding on jobs, and it has increased margins on contracts they’ve already won.

The SWR has the smallest footprint in the industry and when you combine our proprietary Welding Vision System with the insights provided from NovData™, you get a world-class solution that will make you more competitive in your market.

Spool Welding Robot at a Glance

Massive Productivity Gains

Our customers are achieving significant productivity improvements with their SWR, which is making them much more competitive when bidding on jobs and increasing the margin on jobs they’ve already won. With the SWR you can:

 

  • Achieve 200-350 diameter inches per shift on carbon steel pipes, and 569-998 diameter inches per shift on stainless steel pipes
  • Maximize arc-on time with our non-stop root-to-cap process
  • Produce full penetration X-ray quality welds
  • Reduce dependency on scarce, highly-skilled pipe welders

Don’t take our word for it, hear it from our customers:

“Our old way of welding stainless would be to TIG weld with using an ID purge. A 16” schedule 10 weld would take 2-1/2 hours or so to get a purge set up and then weld out. We now can do a 16” schedule 10 weld in 12 minutes that will pass RT.” – David Ray, Fabrication Shop Superintendent at W.W. GAY Mechanical Inc.

Smallest Footprint in the Industry

The SWR has the smallest footprint in the industry of only 4’ x 4’. It is small enough to fit anywhere in your shop without the need to change your current shop workflow. We work closely with your team to create a custom layout that would meet the unique needs of your shop.

 

  • Integrates with 2-5 positioners/turning rolls for maximum arc-on time
  • Flexible layout to accommodate a wide range of spool sizes and configurations
  • Position anywhere in your shop (against the wall, in the corner, or in the middle of the shop)
  • Lower than 1% repair rates

“We looked at a few other options when looking for welding solutions. The edge that Novarc has is the footprint of the equipment, we have a lot more flexibility with the SWR.” – Martin Cartier, Director of Ganotec-Muga Fab.

Improved Weld Quality

In North America repair rates at pipe fabrication shops are around 3-5%. The SWR brings this down to less than 1% by producing consistent, high quality welds every single time. If you’re currently producing 6,000 welds per year with a 3% repair rate, you’re likely spending around $180,000/year in repairs. By reducing the repair rate to less than 1%, you can put the repair costs back onto your bottom-line. Here’s what you should expect from your SWR:

 

  • Lower than 1% repair rates
  • Consistent high quality welds every time
  • Meet key quality test requirements such as Radiography test, Charpy Impact test, Hardness test, Bend test, Tensile test, and more
  • Weld to ASME B31.1, ASME B31.3, EN 13445 and EN 13480 standards

 “We have shown more than half a dozen of our customers around the machine. It’s a powerful message to our clients that we are investing in a piece of technology that’s going to make the work we do for them less expensive, higher quality, and take fewer hours. People really respect businesses that invest in their business rather than do other things with the cash they generate.” – Paul Hebson, VP & General Manager at Vancouver Drydock.

NovEye™

NovEye™ records every weld in real time to provide accountability and traceability for your QA/QC Managers. Here are some highlights:

 

  • Enhanced view of the groove, puddle and stick
  • Every weld is recorded in real time with key weld parameters embedded on screen
  • Improve weld quality by analyzing recorded videos in parallel with the weld parameters saved by NovData™

“The quality side of it is definitely the data aspect; the ability to tie in the weld data and video logs with our BIM information was a very big bonus. Being able to go in and have that level of inspection is really not achievable with the conventional methods.” – Wade Eno, CEO of RoboFab.

نوفاداتا ‏NovData ™

Novarc’s comprehensive production monitoring software, NovData™, brings further traceability into your production by automatically creating in-depth production reports. Here are some highlights of NovData™:

 

  • Track and Improve your pipe welding productivity with the daily operations reports automatically generated every day
  • Bid competitively on projects by applying cost savings gathered from daily operations reports
  • Manage and track the critical weld parameters for accurate troubleshooting and enhanced quality control practices with the log reports automatically generated for each weld

“Novarc’s machine brings a new level of quality and consistency with every weld as well as an embedded video of the weld into the BIM model.” – Pitt Meadows Plumbing & Mechanical Systems Ltd.
