At NOVA Automation, we pride ourselves on delivering innovative automation solutions to our customers, but the real magic happens behind the scenes on our production floor. From the moment raw materials come in to when our final products are tested and shipped out, it’s all about precision and teamwork. Every section of our production floor plays a critical role in ensuring that we meet our high standards of quality, efficiency, and innovation.
Cutting and Machining
Firstly, we have our fabrication area, where our high-powered HD plasma cutter works its magic. This section is essential for cutting the metal into precise pieces that are then sent to welding and other areas for assembly. The plasma cutter uses a high-temperature stream of ionized gas to slice through thick metal sheets with incredible accuracy, which means every cut is precise and ready for the next phase in production.
This area is particularly critical because accuracy at this stage sets the tone for everything that comes after. We make sure that each piece is cut to the exact specifications, ensuring that there are no mistakes when it comes time to assemble the parts into fully functioning systems.
Welding
We then move on to the welding area, where raw metal pieces are fused together to form the structural backbone of our automation solutions. Welding is not just about joining materials; it’s about precision, strength, and creating a foundation that will hold up under the demands of automation systems.
Our team of skilled welders is nothing short of amazing. Our team uses the most advanced techniques and equipment to get the job done right the first time.
What makes this area so important is the level of detail and skill required. Every weld ensures that parts stay in place, maintain their integrity, and can withstand the rigors of industrial automation.
Painting
After the metal has been cut and welded, the next step is painting. Here, parts undergo a meticulous process where they’re cleaned, primed, and coated with durable finishes to ensure they not only look good but also last. The paint job isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s also a critical step in ensuring parts are resistant to rust, wear, and corrosion, particularly in the demanding environments where our automation systems often operate.
This area is where our attention to detail shines. Our team takes great pride in applying coatings that not only enhance the appearance of the parts but also provide long-lasting protection. Whether it’s powder coating, wet painting, or other finishing techniques, this process ensures that every part can withstand both the elements and the test of time.
The Assembly
Each product is assembled with precision and care, and once it’s complete, it’s time for testing. Every system undergoes a series of tests to ensure that it operates as intended. This stage is crucial because it guarantees that what we’re delivering to our customers is not only functional but also reliable and safe.
This area is the final checkpoint before our products are shown to the customers and shipped out. Our test engineers and assemblers work closely together to verify stringent quality standards, fine-tune the systems, and make adjustments to ensure everything operates seamlessly.
