When structural fabricators are asked to weld custom beam sizes, they usually first ask if those custom sizes are truly necessary. They sometimes are, especially when working with some of the extremely large beams used in bridge fabrication and other infrastructure projects.
That was Andy Overton, vice president of sales at FICEP, Baltimore, which recently entered a partnership with Corimpex to introduce a vertical beam welding system to the U.S. market. Our BWM-TC beam welding machine made its official debut at this year’s NASCC: The Steel Conference. The technology aims to streamline and standardize what for U.S.-based fabricators has been a homegrown process. The idea is to make the fabrication of custom beam sizes more predictable and not so labor intensive.
We would like to thank the online magazine The Fabricator for having dedicated a detailed and interesting article about Corimpex and our BWM-TC beam welding machine.
