Small to medium size fabricators around the globe are typically faced with the challenges of:
• Limited Shop Space
• Lack of Skilled Workers Being Available
• Increasing the Accuracy of Their Production
• Competing with Larger Automated Fabricators
Many of these fabricators like Ebner Stahlbau GmbH of Vorau, Austria are finding there are some solutions when confronted with the typical challenges as highlighted above. Conventional pull through style plate processors and drill/saw systems were not attractive in view of their required footprint and level of capital investment in view of their sales.
Ebner Stahlbau found that FICEP’s extensive product line had specific solutions to address the typical needs of the small to medium size fabricator.
Prior to the installation of the FICEP Kronos gantry style plate processor Ebner Stahlbau had to sub-contract their plate detail items for fabrication. Now they load a stock plate on the table and the Kronos can use both oxy-fuel and plasma to cut all their plates as needed. The addition of a “Direct Drive” spindle with an automatic tool changer enables them go from stock plates to finished parts without any additional material handling steps.
When it comes to the fabrication of structural steel shapes Ebner Stahlbau selected the FICEP Excalibur CNC drilling line. The Excalibur takes half the space of a typical drilling line and can automate the layout, scribing, milling and drilling of their structural steel.
The incorporation of an automatic tool changer with a high performance “Direct Drive” drill spindle gives them enhanced accuracy and throughput in less space than they required previously for manual layout and drilling with magnetic base drills.
