Persistent Rapid-Deployment Automation for Shipbuilding and Large-Scale Manufacturing

AMAC — Rapidly Deployable Automation for Shipbuilding and Repair

AMACS combines persistent coordinate references, portable robotic deployment, metrology, digital work mapping, and multi-process automation within a common registered workspace.

The platform is being developed to extend automation beyond conventional fixed cells, allowing shipyards to scan, inspect, identify, prepare, repair and verify work across large and changing ship structures.

AMAC Concept Visualization — Repair & Modernization Application

AMACS creates a persistent registered manufacturing environment that connects physical reference, metrology, digital geometry and rapidly deployable robotic automation.

AMAC for New Fabrication and Repair

AMACS provides the same persistent spatial control environment for both new ship construction and repair. In fabrication, AMACS connects design intent to the actual evolving structure for fit-up, welding, inspection and verification. In repair, AMACS captures the existing as-built condition, defines the work area, guides the required processes and verifies the completed repair.

Different starting points. One persistent control platform.

The AMACS Architecture

AMACS Anchor™ — Persistent Physical Reference

AMACS Anchor™ provides repeatable physical reference associated with the structure or work environment, supporting measurement, registration, verification and portable automation.

The equipment can move. The control relationship persists.

AMACS SmartTrack™ — Bring Automation to the Work

AMACS SmartTrack is ATI’s modular rapid-deployment robotic platform for large and changing work environments.

AMACS SmartTrack extends robotic capability beyond fixed automation cells, positioning compatible process equipment where it creates value and allowing that capability to be re-positioned as production requirements change.

AMACS Gateway™ — Process Continuity

.AMACS Gateway™ coordinates the AMACS environment so compatible measurement, automation and process technologies can operate within a persistent workflow.

AMACS ShipWelder™

A Persistent Automation Environment for Shipyard Welding

AMACS ShipWelder™ applies the AMACS persistent-control environment to robotic welding across large and changing ship structures using compatible robots, welding technologies, sensing and process controls.

Understand the Work → Deploy Automation → Perform the Process → Move → Re-establish → Continue → Verify

Persistent automation for work that cannot remain inside a fixed cell.

ShipWelder applies this architecture to welding using proven welding equipment, process controls and sensing technologies.

AMACS ShipWelder™ brings portable robotic welding, advanced measurement and verification together within a persistent automation environment designed for large and changing ship structures.
