Turner Completes Two Tesla Projects in Austin

Turner Industries recently completed two Tesla projects in Austin, Texas, which involved installing Tesla-owned robotics and conveyor systems, and outage work that focused on maintenance support. By using Turner’s capital project and rope access services, Turner’s team, led by Adam Brittain, Edgardo Zavala, and Jesus Vargas, met a tight three-week deadline efficiently. 

This job, consisting of 3,796 work hours and a peak headcount of 31, required precise equipment handling. By working closely with Tesla’s team, Turner was able to install equipment in locations throughout the facility. Tesla’s management provided exemplary support, working closely with Turner to offer valuable feedback and assistance throughout the project. With the help of the Turner Tablet Applications™, Turner ensured seamless communication and efficient operations, showcasing the team’s expertise in handling delicate installations.
