Hatch becomes authorized value provider of ABB Robotics
April 18, 2019
On April 2, 2019 Hatch became an official system integrator of ABB Robotics under the Authorized Value Provider Program (VPP).
For over 50 years, Hatch has been developing custom machinery solutions for our clients’ toughest challenges. The need for safer and more efficient operations has led to the use of more advanced and flexible automation solutions. For several years, Hatch has been developing custom robotic solutions and the expertise to meet this mandate.
ABB offers an extensive product line of industrial robot arms with foundry grade options that are known for ruggedness and quality. System Integrators develop complete integrated solutions incorporating robots, machine vision and sensing systems, frequently alongside custom machinery. Hatch is providing this service to clients in the mining, metals, energy, and infrastructure sectors.
The mining and metals industry is transforming itself with ever increasing levels of automation. Unlike the manufacturing industry that has been leading the Industry 4.0 initiative, the environments in the mining and metals industry are significantly more challenging, which has historically made automation more difficult. As an Authorized Value Provider, ABB has recognized that Hatch has the expertise to deliver robotic solutions for these challenging environments.
By joining ABB’s network of Value Providers, Hatch can develop and deliver unique robotic solutions to clients globally, and support them over the entire life-cycle of the system.
