Rotoweld 3.0

AI-Driven Pipe Spool Welding Automation

The Rotoweld 3.0 is an advanced fully automated welding system designed to dramatically boost pipe spool productivity and quality. From root to cap, this machine utilizes machine intelligence to track the weld puddle and make real-time adjustments to account for fit-up and material inconsistencies. Welding times are roughly 1min per 1in of pipe OD for standard wall and 1.5min per 1in of pipe OD of for heavy wall.  The Rotoweld 3.0 is an invaluable tool for industries requiring reliable and precise welding on pipes, tanks, and other cylindrical structures, making it a key player in streamlining manufacturing processes and ensuring top-notch weld quality.

Rotoweld 3.0 Twin Bay

The Rotoweld 3.0 Twin Bay is all about efficiency and arc-on time. Make loading, unloading, grinding and aligning time losses disappear with the twin bay. Prepare your next spool on the second bay while the Rotoweld is completing a job on the first bay. This is how you’ll accomplish up to 300 dia inch in a single 10-hour shift.

Automated Pipe Welding: Our Products

Why Automate?

As we continue to see a decline in the number and quality of skilled welders one thing remains the same: the demand for critical piping systems within our essential infrastructure. The shops who innovate to overcome this growing challenge to our industry are going to put themselves in a position for growth, while shops who fail to innovate are creating the potential to lose future business. It is an unfortunate reality that our skilled workforce is declining, but a reality non-the-less. GSI Machinery's mission is to strengthen America's critical infrastructure by serving those who maintain it, and to that end we are providing innovations that will keep fabrication on American soil rather than overseas in places where labor and quality are cheap. It is detrimental to the reliability of our infrastructure to have this work outsourced and so we are providing solutions that will keep our shops at home competitive in today's global market. The idea is not to put welders out of a job but instead to free up skilled welders to perform more complex welding operations while our technology handles the mundane, repeatable welding tasks and keeps shops productive with the limited welders they still have. There are numerous benefits to automating the pipe welding process including repeatable quality, consistency, speed, safety, and throughput. If you are curious to learn more, please reach out to us today and let's see if it makes sense for your shop to consider an automated pipe welding solution.
