The company was bought out in January 2004 by John Stalker a metals industry specialist for an undisclosed sum and since this time a further £3 million has been invested in new machinery, upgrading the infrastructure and expanding the works area to include a new warehouse for accepting bulk/mill deliveries (now over 30,000 square feet) and installing state of the art computer hardware and software to facilitate excellent communication with customers.
Nowadays the company is thoroughly modern and runs state of the art laser machines provided by world class partners including Trumpf, BLM Adige and Mazak. Machines are being constantly reviewed, updated and maintained to ensure that our customers get the fastest and most reliable service at the best prices. Our latest Mazak Fabrigear 300 works in 3 Dimensional or 6 Axis mode and is the only machine in the UK that can offer automatic cutting of large tubes and sections (H, C, I etc) in automatic mode with optional bevel edges - also called weld preps.
Our wealth of in house technical knowledge means that we have more expertise than some in being able to advise clients on the enormous possibilities available by using the accuracy and flexibility of laser processing. Certainly whilst flat laser cutting is more established we believe that with tube cutting there are still many more productivity gains that are not currently being exploited.
Many small fabrication shops still, saw or flame cut, end dress and machine out slots, drill and tap and then jig up before finally performing quality challenged welding. A series of processes undoubted cheaper to perform in the developing world!
