Fronius USA at Fabtech 2017

Event

11/11/2017

”What’s your welding challenge?”

That was the theme of this years Fronius USA booth at FABTECH 2017. Held at McCormick Place Chicago from November 6th – 9th; more than 50,000 visitors took part at the expo, a record setting attendance according to SME officials. 

The Fronius welding habitats

This year Fronius USA had 2 separate and unique booth spaces – the first being customer interaction oriented and the other being solely related to the welding world.

In the first booth, customers could see static machines on display, static robots outfitted with the push-pull system and CMT, as well as an area highlighting the Online Demo Shop. A coffee bar and customer lounge area afforded attendees the time to sit down with the sales team to discuss their unique challenges. In addition there was also an area dedicated to the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) campaign. WWP is a charity and veterans service organization that offers a variety of programs, services, and events for wounded veterans of the military actions following September 11, 2001. Visitors could enter a drawing to win a Limited Edition TP180 Veterans Camouflage Edition which Fronius USA is donating up to $50,000 USD from the proceeds to the WWP. Each visitor who entered also received a limited edition camouflage baseball cap embroidered with the Fronius and WWP logos. The idea of this campaign was simple – Fronius USA wanted to give thanks to the many Veterans employed at the company as well as all Veterans in the USA.  

In the second booth were 4 habitats where live welding was taking place. Two shipping containers were outfitted for construction and fabrication and allowed visitors the chance to go inside and actually weld with the products. In addition there was also live automotive welding on galvanized steel in the Automotive habitat and Flex Track Pipe Welding in the Automation habitat. As at the S&S expo, the WeldCube data management system was collecting and displaying live data from all four of the habitats.  We would like to thank all who visited our booths.        

FABTECH will return in 2018 in Atlanta, GA, November 6th – 8th. We hope to see you there!
