In 2002, we installed a new ESAB Avenger 2 burning machine. This is a large, heavy duty gantry style
burning machine capable of precise positioning accuracy. We outfitted our
machine
with a standard plasma burning head, and a
state-of-the-art programmable
rotating plasma bevel head. The bevel head can burn and bevel plate up to 1 1/4"
thick.
The bevel angle is set in the CNC software at the time the part is programmed and nested by
our Drafting staff. The bevel angle can be changed along the part (if
required) and the bevel can follow a simple or complex cut path.
Essentially, any shape that we can program can be beveled. We are using
specially designed software provided by the Sigmatek Corporation, which allows
us to perform the
beveling and to also nest the parts for optimum cutting efficiency. Please
email or call our sales staff to see what we can do for you!! We were honored to receive our ISO 9002 certification in October, 1998
from the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS). To our knowledge, we were the
first "true" flame cutting company to receive an ISO 9002
certification. There are large national steel service centers that operate
a few burning tables as a sideline to their core business
and are ISO 9002
certified, but we think we are the first flame cutting company to achieve this
valued award. In October, 2001, we achieved another milestone - we made the
transition from ISO 9002 to ISO 9001:2000. We are extremely proud that our
Company passed this tough audit conducted by ABS with no findings - meaning that
ABS found no nonconformances (problems) in our Quality System that
required correcting before our revised certificate could be issued. In
September, 2004, we just completed a major audit with ABS and were recertified
to ISO 9000:2000. We have recently been selected or are in negotiations with several large
companies to be their single source supplier for all their steel plate,
flame cutting, plasma cutting, and value added services. These companies are well known,
large quality oriented organizations. We were chosen because of our
quality, reputation, integrity, and because of the professional way in which we
conduct our business.Within the last several years, we completed updating our
other eight oxyfuel burning machines to make them function
as accurately as possible.
The upgrading consisted of installing
state-of-the-art ESAB Vision 3000 CNC controllers, rack and pinion drive
systems, new drive motors, grinding and realignment of all rail systems, new
bearings, reworking torches, etc. We can handle up to 20 feet wide by 40+
feet long on our largest burning table with unparalleled accuracy. The
Vision 3000 controllers offer the viewing of the real time cutting path, parts
nesting, etc.
