Half a Century of World-Class Welding Positioners

Pemamek has been designing and manufacturing welding positioners for demanding and heavy workpiece welding for nearly fifty years now. Welding Positioners enable increased working flexibility, productivity, quality and they are also beneficial for welders: PEMA Welding Positioners have been developed to add ergonomic working comfort and ensure a safer working environment.

50 years of Productive and Quality Welding

When Pemamek was established nearly 50 years ago, in 1970, itโ€™s very first product was a small welding positioner. First welding positioners were delivered within the companyโ€™s home country Finland, but already in the midst ofย  1970 Pemamek started to deliver welding positioners abroad as well, first to Sweden and Norway.

The first welding positioners were only for around 150-kilogram workpieces whereas today, Pemamekโ€™s standard welding positioners can take about 50 000-kilogram loads.

Positioners have been designed and manufactured in Loimaa, Finland for nearly half a century.ย 

Welding Positioners Support the Job of Welders

The main advantage of a welding positioner utilization is the fact that workpieces can be adjusted to the best possible down hand welding positions โ€“ this raises welding productivity as much as 70 %. Pemamekโ€™s welding positioners are a combination of modern design and reliable, efficient technology and they can effortlessly be integrated with other PEMA solutions.

The welding positioners have been developed to best support the job of welders: features such as handy remote-control grant convenience, and special attention has been paid to safety-at-work- matters and ergonomics.

PEMA positioner series APS Skymaster, FPS Megamaster, HPS Headstock & TPS Tailstock and SPS Skyhook offer a wide range of capacities from 250 kilograms up to 250 tonnes. Compared to manual workpiece handling, positioners diminish the uncertain quality and risk of injuries and they also enable savings in time: for example with PEMA APS Skymaster, 500 to 700 hours per year is saved in comparison to manual workpiece handling.


Typical Applications for Heavy Welding Positioners:

โŒช Automated welding of heavy thick-walled dish ends

โŒช Cladding of pressure vessel components

โŒช Narrow gap and tandem narrow gap welding stations of thick-walled pressure vessels

โŒช Foundations for wind energy plants

โŒช Propeller housings, winches, and other shipbuilding and offshore industry components
