On October 25, AMADA will open its new Welding Technical Center (WTC) in Pontenure, near Piacenza in Italy. Here, European customers will not only be able to get to know the entire welding technology portfolio but will also have the opportunity to work on joint developments.
“Laser-welded parts play an important role in our day-to-day lives and are used, for example, in fields such as aviation and aerospace, e-mobility or medical engineering. That is why the new Welding Technical Center will be the setting for AMADA to demonstrate its full portfolio of technologies in a single space, from large welding robots through to automated laser welding cells for micro-applications,” explains Joerg Kundrat, COO AMADA WELD TECH Europe. At the heart of the Center, there is the “Weld Vision Hub”, an interactive space where customers can experience the forward-looking capabilities of AMADA’s fiber laser welding technologies first hand. Here, they can meet with experts to discuss, test and analyze tailor-made solutions for specific production requirements. A process monitoring capability provides information about the quality of the welds, an aspect which is of enormous importance for suppliers in the medical engineering or automotive sector.

“Welding is an important process step during overall production. AMADA is determined to cover a large number of the different processes involved in the manufacturing chain as a single-source supplier. The fact that AMADA Italy and AMADA Engineering Europe are located close to one another means that visitors to the new WTC can benefit from valuable synergies, for example they can also see AMADA sheet metal processing machines and solutions for automating loading and unloading operations,” explains Philipp Hagn, Business Development Manager at AMADA WELD TECH Europe. Given the growth of the southern European market and the proximity to southern Germany and Austria, the WTC in northern Italy is also very well-situated geographically for potential customers. The WTC will be opened on Friday, October 25, 2024, to coincide with the EuroBLECH trade fair in Hanover. The new WTC will reflect AMADA’s commitment to offering reliable, technologically advanced machines designed to meet the needs of high-quality production in Europe. At the same time, AMADA is working on processes that minimize any harm to the environment. In this way, the new Welding Technical Center also underlines the company’s commitment to a greener, more sustainable futur
