Tube Automation

Sylvan has always been an innovation and technology leader in the pontoon industry, and that history-making continues with the industry’s first fully assembled pontoon tube automation process. Full 25” diameter pontoon tubes and nose cones can now be robotically welded together, providing ultimate precision.

This revolutionary pontoon tube automation process includes the welding of the nose cones, tube sections, riser brackets, and full-length keel. This improves the efficiency and overall quality of each individual tube. 

"The new automated lines will increase our production potential, while also improving quality and consistency. This is the future of pontoon manufacturing, and we are proud to lead the industry in this way, said Mike Boyle, Smoker Craft, Inc. Process Engineer. "
