A new Application Technology Centre located in Yennora, South-West Sydney, is an industrial and medical gas production and bottling plant that drives innovation and productivity improvements across the Australian manufacturing industry.
The new state of the art facility was officially opened by Senator the Hon Tim Ayres, Assistant Minister for Trade and Manufacturing. This building will showcase world class welding processes and equipment to customers, industry and educators, with a focus on industry 4.0 technologies that make customers more productive.
Smart welding equipment and BOC’s (a Linde gas company) high-performance gases are used to help Australian manufacturers remain competitive by improving welding speeds, producing high-quality welds, reducing manual handling and improving safety. This facility demonstrates the benefits of welding cobots to semi-automate welding processes to help solve skilled welder shortage challenges and improve welding productivity.
