Manufacturing capabilities include Laser Welding | Laser | Pressing | CNC Machining | Welding | Robotics

GEL have developed a range of innovative manufacturing processes utilised from cradle to grave comprehensive fabrication facilities, laser profiling involving multi axis welding robotics, a variety of welding processes (including Robotics 3D Fibre Laser), 5 axis machining, large deep drawn pressing, forming, surface treatments (Vaqua Blasting), polishing, CMM inspection and final assembly.

Supporting these activities are non-destructive testing services utilising x-ray or dye-penetrant, and the ability to permanently identify the product using fibre laser engraving technology.

Laser Welding Lancashire

Laser Welding Cell 1

Built in May 2012, the cell is 10m X 8m.
Delivering the laser there is a Precitec YW52 Welding head.
Driven by a Fanuc M710 ic 6 axis robot.
This sits on an 8M track which gives the versatility of the whole 10m of the cell for the robot to move within.
500kg tilt and turn manipulator.
5000kg tilt and turn Motofil manipulator.

Laser Welding Cell 2

Built in May 2018, the cell is 8m X 4.5m.
Delivering the laser is a IPG D50 wobble head that allows us to osculate the beam to deliver larger spot sizes when required.
Driven by a Fanuc M710 ic 6 axis robot.
This sits on a 6m track that allows the robot again to span the whole length of the cell.
500Kg tilt and turn manipulator.
500Kg floor level rotator.
500Kg horizontal rotator with tail stock.

Laser Welding Cell 3

Built in October 2020, the cell is 10m X 6m.
Delivering the laser there is a Precitec YW52 Welding head.
Driven by a Fanuc M710 ic 6 axis long arm robot.
This sits on an 8M track which gives the versatility of the whole 10m of the cell for the robot to move within.
295Kg Fanuc tilt and turn small manipulator.
