Cutting & Profiling

    Business Policy Develops a Cut Above with Laser

    Depressed markets and thin order books might put off most small companies with big plans to purchase assets in the order of £300k. Not so Rojac Engineering, where the Directors have taken advantage of the prevailing low interest rates to drive ahead their longstanding policy to develop the higher quality side of their sub-contract sheetmetal business. 

    Pigeon Work is a Coup

    The order book has reached new heights at the Scarborough-based RR Engineering with a contract to provide decorative weathervanes for a racing pigeon equipment firm. RR was one of the first companies in the country to buy the Mazak STX Mark II 510 laser profiler to enhance its sheetmetal service, which serves a variety of industries including: transport, power suppliers, shopfitting and sign manufacturers. 

    Water Jet Was the Only Way For Paper Mill Part

    World Wide Water Jet (WWW), of Herne Bay in Kent, recently provided a cost effective and time saving solution to a problem. Their customer, a heavy engineering company, needed to supply a 118mm thick stainless steel replacement part for a paper mill. Water jet cutting is the only known method of cutting material of that thickness to the degree of precision required.
