Robotic automation for marine manufacturing
Boats, engines and marine components bring large curved parts and demanding finishes. ARS brings simulation, fabrication and robot programming to that work.

01Demands
What marine asks of a line
Large, curved composite and metal parts
Hulls, decks and housings are big curved shapes that are hard to fixture and hard to reach.
Low to medium volumes
Boats and engines are built in small runs, so a cell has to handle many variants.
Corrosion-resistant finishes
Salt water attacks every weak spot in a coating, so finishes have to go on evenly and completely.
Manual work that is hard to staff
Grinding, trimming and finishing are dusty, tiring jobs that are hard to fill.
