Multiple processes involve multiple risk points; repeated material handling increases the safety risks of manual operation.
Production Management
Secondary Processing Line: Automated production, processing task orders, production reports, work order reporting, MES system integration, production information management, complete set production.
Manual product inspection; document organization; manual data entry. Difficult to achieve digital and information-based management and complete set production.

Laser Bevel Cutting VS Traditional Bevel Cutting
Traditional bevel cutting methods rely heavily on manual labor, resulting in low efficiency and poor processing accuracy, as well as environmental problems such as noise and dust. In contrast, using Dowell laser bevel cutting technology, the dimensions are precise, the hole walls are smooth and perfectly vertical, mechanical marking is possible, and the process is clean and free of debris.
At the same time, when performing bevel cutting for processing, in order to ensure the strength of the weld, high requirements and high precision are needed for the bevel cut surface, and there should be no slag on the welding surface.
-
Manual Drilling
Inefficient, difficult to accurately position the holes, and requires frequent checking of drawings to determine the location.
-
Mechanical Drilling
Adds extra steps, repeated clamping is inefficient.
-
Plasma Cutting
Excessive heat concentration can easily lead to deformation of H-beams, resulting in excessively wide cuts and poor circularity.
