MPI Automotive Welding Cell

​MPI Automotive purchased a used dual-station robotic welding cell and asked OLP Robotics to provide a cost-effective solution to refurbish and re-purpose it for welding of exhaust components. The cell was gutted of original electronics due to water damage and rewired with a HMI panel, allowing an easy-to-use graphical operator interface. Pneumatically operated screens and interlocks were also refurbished in order to meet safety standards. OLPR designed custom jigs for holding the unique geometry of each part in perfectly repeatable positions for welding, which were mounted on a rotator in order to enable full access to all welds. With the cell now running full-time, MPI have increased production capacity and quality across several product lines.

Rocks Gone Welding Cell

Rocks Gone contacted OLP Robotics seeking assistance for programming their existing robot cell to perform tungsten chip welding on new parts. After first calibrating a virtual cell to match the real one, OLP designed new fixtures enabling accurate and repeatable part positioning. Using offline programming software and Fanuc logic, the robot was efficiently up-skilled and able to launch straight into production of new parts. Rocks Gone are now achieving higher productivity, consistent quality, and a safer operation for their staff.

Carey College STEM Excursion

As part of an education partnership with Carey Baptist College, OLP Robotics had the pleasure and privilege of having some STEM students visit us to learn about robotics and offline programming. They had fun driving a real industrial robot, and created their own robot programs using our offline programming software which we ran on our writing robot!

OLP Robotics is dedicated to supporting education for the next generation. Please contact us if you have an interest in this area.
