PRODUCTION

Steelwork is fabricated in-house at our 2.5-acre production facility in Pocklington, capable of producing approximately 10,000 tonnes of structural steelwork per year.

Our workforce has a wealth of experience in projects that range from beam-and-column and portal frame buildings to the most complex steel-framed structures.

We use advanced CNC machinery, linked to our detailing department, to ensure precise, fast and efficient cutting, drilling and processing operations. We have full shot-blast facilities, connected to our production control system and carry out all plating and finishes touches to prepare the steelwork for installation. We complete all painting in-house, as well as applying finished surface treatments, including single and multi-coat systems.

Our manufacturing process is scheduled in planned ‘lots’ dictated by the required installation sequence. All components are identified with part or erection marks to meet CE-marking requirements and provide full traceability of all components.

Please read below for further details on some of the machinery we use to ensure we consistently provide steelwork of the highest quality.

PCD-1100/3C - Advantage-2 Drill Line

The Advantage-2 beam drill line is the latest innovation in Peddinghaus drilling technology. Capable of drilling, tapping, and countersinking a wide array of profiles the PCD-1100/3C is the first Peddinghaus machine to include 5 station tool changers, lead screw spindle motion, and an all new comprehensive clamping system. The combination of time tested Peddinghaus technology and these new enhancements easily make this machine the most innovative drill line in the world today.

DG1250 – MITER Series Band Saw

The all new DG1250 band saw is designed to offer unmatched mitering capability and high speed cutting versatility to the modern steel fabricator. Further eliminating the band saw bottleneck, the DG1250 band saw utilizes a robust 14.5 kW blade motor, advanced material frictionless support system, and rugged Peddicat blade with minimum quantity lubrication system.

HSFDB-B 1800 Plate Line

The High Speed FDB is a plate machine that redefines the industry standard for plate processing productivity. The HSFDB plate processing system utilizes an eight tool rotary tool changer that travels with the spindle throughout its full range of motion. The 36kW Siemens smart spindle motor helps bring high speed plate processing to our shop. Packing an impressive 2250 RPM drilling speed, this machine will accommodate the short lead times that keep us competitive in today's market.
