“We are excited to partner with Path Robotics to incorporate their state-of-the-art physical AI models to further augment our workforce and speed up U.S. Navy manned and unmanned shipbuilding production.”
“Restoring America's maritime industrial capacity requires rethinking how shipyards are designed and operated from the ground up. At Saronic, we are exploring how physical AI and automation can help advance shipbuilding operations.”
“Traditional automation could not handle the reality of shipbuilding. Path's technology gives us the added capacity we need without relying on a shrinking labor pool of welders, while maintaining the quality our customers expect.”
“We can produce more product in the same amount of time without having to work harder. The quality of the Path cell is very good. The welds are really consistent.”
