Salvagnini L3 Fiber Optic Laser, ideal for agricultural equipment parts

Fiber Optic Laser

In late 2013, when the Ajax team ordered the company’s first Salvagnini L3 fiber optic laser, we suspected it could become a fairly busy machine. Today, we couldn’t do without fiber laser cutting; it’s become standard equipment.  We network them to reduce bottlenecks. Here’s a look at the inside of a new one.

Yaskawa Welding Robot

Industrial Robotic Welder

From prototyping to short-run to high-volume, super-efficient lines, robots can handle an extremely broad spectrum of production assignments. The Ajax Yaskawa AR1440 welding robot makes clean, precise welds and is extremely productive, helping to keep costs as low as possible.

This animation shows how the new Ajax robot will operate. Note how the robot can automatically clean the welding effector and then move on to the next welding project. This self-cleaning capability is one of the keys to the robot’s efficiency.

Expert Services That Make a Big Difference

Agricultural equipment OEMs are in a hotly competitive market.  Their expectations for metal forming partners include precision, consistency, and highly-competent part programming.  Ajax delivers on all these counts, including expertise with SOLIDWORKS® and RADAN CAD CAM software applications.
