The math
What a weld inch costs
Price per inch is the cell's hourly rate divided by the inches it welds in an hour.
- ExampleA cell at $60/h, welding 20 inches a minute with the arc on 40% of the time, lays about 480 inches an hour: about $0.125 an inch. Made up numbers, to show the math.
- Money for shopsSR&ED tax credits, NRC IRAP for new integration work, BDC technology loans, and PacifiCan's tariff response funding in BC can all help with automation.
