Automated Welding Stations for steel tank construction

Nordweld delivered the Advanced System with Wheel Trolley for the construction of two stainless steel tanks made of LDX 2101, each with a capacity of 10,300 m³. The project combined top-down erection, tank rotation, mechanized welding at ground level, and material processing from both coil and flat sheets. Discover how the integrated Nordweld system supported efficient work organization, predictable productivity, and safe construction of large industrial tanks.
