Default Local Heavy Equipment Fab Shop

Just because I thought this was really cool. A good friend of mine went to work for them not to long ago and I took a personal tour two days ago. A really small part for this shop is like 15 lbs. Last month they shipped 3,500,000 lbs of 'finished' product.

There are 5 flame cut tables in this building up to 16' x 24' capacity, one cuts up to 13" thickness.






This building is plasma and flame bevel cutting, the material in the foreground is 5/16" plate.




Yard inventory of 8' x 20' x 1-1/4" plate.


The 500 ton press that bends that 1-1/4" plate.......they have a 1000 ton press on order.
