Witter Towbars continues investment in robotic automation

Witter Towbars, the UK’s leading towbar manufacturer, has continued its investment in robotic technology by installing 10 new ABB welding cells for arc welding at its plant in Deeside, North Wales/UK. The company currently manufactures a complete range of towbars and towing related accessories including cycle carriers, roof racks and towing and non-towing steps. Following on from its last investment in 2005, Witter Towbars approached ABB with the requirement for new welding cells to help improve plant efficiency and control, and provide full traceability of weld parameters by enabling monitoring of the resulting weld data.
