OTC Daihen Inc., a supplier of advanced manual and robotic welding systems, achieved the milestone of producing its 1000th production robotic welding system. This system, a Servo-ARC 720B turntable robot welder, was sold by OTC Daihen Platinum-level Advanced Welding Partner for the Great Lakes region Airgas, an Air Liquide company, and purchased by East Manufacturing to augment its production of over-the-road trailers at its Randolph, Ohio, location.
“The completion of our 1,000th pre-engineered welding system represents 20 years of advancing robotic welding solutions by the OTC Daihen Inc. team. Our goal of automating the metal fabrication operations of our North American customers would not have achieved this success without the focused efforts and technical strengths of our Advanced Welding Partners like Airgas. With our recently expanded manufacturing assembly capacity and increased product and consumable inventory here in Ohio, we are further committed to growing our arc-welding automation solutions for all metal fabricators seeking the advantages of our exclusive welding technology,” said Todd Griffieth, general manager, technical operations with OTC Daihen.
Nathan Moyer, Great Lakes region automation sales manager at Airgas, added: “We’re proud to provide customers with support to find the best automation fit for their needs. We are excited to see how this 1000th milestone and future units will help our customers continuously improve their productivity and bring on new, efficient ways to get the job done.”
