Pickwick Structural Shape Processing

Automatic laser machining for tube, angle, channel, beams and hollow extrusions to reduce or eliminate:

• Secondary machinining
• Fixturing
• Tack Welding

The benefits laser-cutting first brought to sheet fabrication so many years ago – no tooling, economical small-lot blanking, reduced operations, improved accuracy, tab-and-slot design – are now available for fabrications that take advantage of the lower cost, stronger structural shapes as well. 

Secondary Machining for any geometry that cuts entirely through the wall, at nearly any angle, can be applied in the same operation that cuts the material to length.  But that’s just the starting point! Twenty-six axis of motion enable totally new cut geometry to -

1. Hand-bend tube and bar and replace tube benders or rollers
2. Adding locking tabs for positive, rigid positioning
3. Notching similar or different materials for jigsaw puzzle construction - tube to tube, tube to angle, angle to channel – to reduce component piece count and simplify assembly.
4. Angle cutting to establish location without fixtures.
