Evaluating Robotic Welding Technology
At Capital Robotics, we realize choosing the right robot is a critical decision and investment for any size company. We operate two mobile demonstration trailers equipped with functional arc welding robots. We are so confident of our product and our weld knowledge that we will bring the demo unit to your facility and program and weld any part, or representation of the part for your review
|
|
  Capital maintains operational Robotic Welding Cells in all three of our Technology Centers, Tampa, Dallas, and Atlanta. Customers can schedule a personal demonstration to review our equipment, system capabilities, and support personnel. |
Allow Capital Robotics to evaluate your existing arc welding processes, determine present operating cost, and demonstrate methods to reduce cost, improve quality and thru-put wherever possible.
