Relay Engineering have modern well-equipped workshops for fabrication welding and machining of structures and parts in steel, aluminum or stainless steel.
Automatic pipe spool welding robot
Our Plymouth workshop benefits from the use of automatic pipe spool welding robot (Rotoweld 3.0) offering improved weld quality, safety and efficiency. Used for pipe spool fabrication and small pressure vessel manufacturing, it uses advanced automatic welding technology and robotics to create high-quality welds. The key benefits of this welding robot provide positive outcomes for our people, the client and Relay:
High Productivity: the welding robot can perform welds faster than manual welding, significantly increasing productivity.
Consistent Quality: ensures consistent, high-quality welds.
Improved Safety: our operators are kept away from the arc and other potential hazards, reducing exposure to heat, UV radiation, and fumes.
Better Operator Experience: designed for ease of use, making complex welds accessible to less experienced operators and improving their work conditions by eliminating ergonomic strain.
Reliability and Serviceability: built with standard, reliable components and a simplified control system for easy maintenance and long-term operation.
Machining
Our Profile Cutting capabilities allow us to cut highly intricate parts to be produced using the latest technology including water jet cutting and high-definition plasma CNC controlled machines. With cutting thicknesses up to 150mm we can produce one offs or multiple component parts as required.
We operate a 260-amp high-definition plasma profiler and benefit from two water jet profiling machines (located in Plymouth and Aberdeen). We can cut almost any material to very high tolerances with guaranteed precision. Water jet cutting offers a superior cut quality with no mechanical or heat stress or edge finishing.
In our fabrication shops we also have bending CNC machines, allowing sheets to be precision formed or bent with 100 Tonne capacity to achieve the correct part first time.
