"With manual welding, we could only achieve a certain level of quality. The cobot allows us to reach an even higher standard while also reducing welding time with smoother finishes."


– Vildan Cakir, Overseas Sales & Marketing Manager, Basaraneller Makina


"Welder fatigue was a big issue. Productivity used to drop after working long hours, but the cobot never slows down. Now, the same part that took 40 minutes manually takes just 10 minutes."


– Cem Seren, Production Team Lead, Basaraneller Makina

BUSINESS CASE


Basaraneller Makina, a leading Turkish manufacturer specializing in steel mill and rolling mill machinery, sought a way to improve welding efficiency and meet strict international welding standards required by their export customers. With 60% of their products shipped to foreign markets, ensuring consistent weld quality and productivity was crucial for their business growth.

PROBLEM


  • Welding was time-consuming, limiting production capacity.

  • Welder fatigue affected productivity, with noticeable drops in efficiency by mid-afternoon.

  • International customers required strict welding standards, making manual welding inconsistent in quality.

  • Scalability issues—manual welding was not efficient for large-volume, high-complexity projects.

SOLUTION


Basaraneller implemented RBW’s cobot welding solution (RB-MIG) to tackle these challenges, benefiting from:

  • 24/7 operation without fatigue, ensuring steady productivity.

  • Higher welding quality, meeting and exceeding international standards.

  • Significant time savings, particularly on large-volume projects.

  • Quick operator adoption, with the team mastering the cobot within a month.

VALUE


  • 75% reduction in welding time (from 40 minutes to 10 minutes per part).

  • 4 large-scale projects completed in just 6 months using cobot automation.

  • Increased efficiency, allowing welders to focus on more complex tasks.

  • Higher consistency, meeting international welding standards with precision.

  • Fast learning curve, enabling a smooth transition to cobot welding.
