Our new flat bed and tube laser

Our recent investment program has seen the purchase of an Amada 4 Kw FOII Rotary Index Laser machine. We believe that we are unique in offering a sub contract tube laser service on the South Coast. This is a combination machine that can be used as a Flat Bed Laser capable of cutting steel up to 25mm thick and can easily be re-configured to cut Tube with a maximum diameter of 220 mm. Box section, angle and steel sections can be cut with ease and with extreme accuracy. If you require any laser cutting as a sub contract operation please call us on 01903 784242.

Commitment to high quality

Our on-going commitment to quality and leading edge technology has lead us to invest in Amada automated CNC machines. Over 2 million pounds of investment in the last 10 years has given us an edge over our competitors. This has allowed us to expand our work force and increase our already superior skill levels throughout the business. From our high quality products and skilled workforce to our distinctive customer base, we can provide you with sheet metal work second to none.

How we were in the 1950’s.

On examination of these archive photograph’s the level of equipment was cutting edge for the era. Some of this plant would be familiar to today’s engineers although a certain level of sophistication has been introduced since. We are now used to NC controlled machines with off line programming.

The large control desk that is being loaded on the transport is similar to the control desks that we make today. These photographs were taken at Lund’s Wandsworth site, they made the move to Rustington during the sixties.
