In a move to enhance Fort Vale’s global manufacturing capabilities, members of our specialist Maintenance and Engineering teams from Fort Vale UK recently travelled to our Shanghai factory in China, to help with the successful implementation of a state-of-the-art robotic welding machine, to bolster Fort Vale China’s production processes.
The addition of this automated welding process marks a major step forward in Fort Vale China’s production capabilities and capacity, enabling them to carry out intricate welding operations with increased consistency, speed, and efficiency. The robot welding machine is tailored to aid the production demands of our Chinese customer base, ensuring we can provide faster lead times, enhanced quality of our products, and an agile response to market needs.
The collaboration between our UK and China manufacturing plants is a great example of Fort Vale’s global integration and technical expertise. Our UK Engineers worked closely with our China team to install, configure, and train the relevant staff on the new robotic system, ensuring that there would be a seamless adoption of this process.
This investment in advanced automation shows that we are not only improving the efficiency of our production processes but also strengthening the commitment we show to delivering products of the highest levels of quality and service, wherever our customers may be in the world.
This milestone displays Fort Vale’s continued investment in the innovation and international growth of the company and underlines the continued focus on delivering excellence through engineering.
