When you build something as massive as planes, maintaining production timelines is critical. One delay can set the entire project back months. And every project faces one sooner or later. When the timeline and the success of a project pivot on custom tools, the spotlight is on the supplier. It's show time. IMCO Carbide Tool experienced one of these situations recently.
Scotchman Industries Inc.'s CPO 350 PKPD, semiautomatic circular cold saw with electric power down feed can miter up to 135 degrees, 45 degrees to the right and 90 degrees to the left.
Behringer has introduced the new HCS 150/160 MF saw, a high-performance carbide circular cold saw that uses multi-fluid cooling technology to prevent heat transfer to product during mass cutting applications.
An air powered saw and track system which reportedly attaches easily to water wall boiler tube sections to produce square cuts that require no further rework is available from ESCO Tool.
Exhibiting the tools and the talent in which other fabricators reportedly do not, LeJeune Steel Co. of Minneapolis, specializes in bridge fabrication using Peddinghaus equipment.
