SeaRobotics Announces Formation of High-Specification Manufacturing Facility

In-house manufacturing capabilities will allow SeaRobotics to broaden its offerings to new markets.

SeaRobotics LogoSeaRobotics Corporation is pleased to announce its acquisition of FP Tool Inc., a Stuart, FL-based machine shop. The merging of capabilities will enable SeaRobotics to offer expanded and efficient manufacturing services to the marine robotics, subsea components and theme park markets, filling the need for a high-specification fabrication capability in the Southeast region that can serve a broad range of industries.

"The incorporation of FP Tool's manufacturing capacity completes SeaRobotics' ability to provide our customers a comprehensive product development solution, including product conceptualization, design, fabrication, and testing," commented Don Darling, President of SeaRobotics. "Our clients in a variety of industries will benefit from this 'one stop shop' service that our broadened capabilities will provide."

As a result of incorporating the expertise and capabilities of FP Tool, and the inclusion of an AWS/ASME certified welding program, SeaRobotics will be able to offer in-house solutions for high-specification, close-tolerance machined parts, weldments and assemblies for a variety of industries. SeaRobotics plans to relocate the manufacturing services to its main facility in early 2015 to accommodate the additional personnel, machinery and infrastructure.

"This expansion of the SeaRobotics campus will enable more direct face-to-face interaction between engineering and manufacturing personnel," said Jim Browning, Vice President of Production at SeaRobotics. "We will benefit from each other's experience and knowledge, ultimately creating solutions that will better benefit our clients."

Roger Horn, former President of FP Tool and current Production Manager at SeaRobotics, adds, "Our new partnership with SeaRobotics allows us to extend our capabilities with engineering support and expanded fabrication facilities. We look forward to providing our customers with a broader range of design and manufacturing solutions."
