Shoals Technologies Group (Muscle Shoals, AL) manufactures custom automotive parts as well as appliance and industrial components. These components include wire assemblies and electromechanical devices. To facilitate larger production runs, the company worked with Hanson Systems Inc. (Fletcher, NC) to create an automated resistance welding machine.
In building the machine, Hanson Systems incorporated a number of Robo Cylinder electric actuators from IAI America Inc. (Torrance, CA), both to lower ramp-up times and increase the accuracy of the welds.
