Welding

Our Welding Department consists of 10 welding bays equipped with MIG / TIG combination machines to achieve the best possible manual welding results in Mild and Stainless Steel. 5 Spot Welding machines and Stud Welding equipment add to all possible variations of permanent joining procedures.

Fanuc Welding Robot

  • With Lincoln Electric Power Source ( Power Wave F355i)
  • High motion speeds with great performance and productivity
  • Integrated Servo Torch with wrist mounted wire feeder
  • Mild or Stainless Steel applications
  • Dual Table Setup for increased productivity

Grinding

Our grinding rooms are in excess of 100m2 and have over 10 workstations , they are split equally to avoid contamination between Mild and Stainless Steel. A fair amount of skill is required for this process as it is totally manual, various grit discs are used ranging from 36-180 depending on the product and desired finish.

Spot Welding

Resistance welding is one of the oldest of the electric welding processes in use by industry today. The weld is made by a combination of heat, pressure, and time. As the name resistance welding implies, it is the resistance of the material to be welded to current flow that causes a localized heating in the part. The pressure exerted by the tongs and electrode tips, through which the current flows, holds the parts to be welded in intimate contact before, during, and after the welding current time cycle. The required amount of time current flows in the joint is determined by material thickness and type, the amount of current flowing, and the cross-sectional area of the welding tip contact surfaces.
