Beam Line Processing and Steel Processing Services
Advanced CNC beam line processing, as a service or as part of a package.
NWEC runs an advanced CNC beam line for fast, accurate cutting and drilling of structural steel sections. Processing up to 100 tonnes per week from our Villawood facility, we take on beam line processing as a standalone service or as part of a full fabrication package.
Beam line capabilities
- CNC programmed cutting and drilling of sections up to 16.5 metres in length
- Cut and drill up to 610UB and 400WC
- Cut up to 350NB pipe
- Throughput of 80 to 100 tonnes per week
Why beam line processing matters
Beam line processing removes the slowest and most error-prone steps in structural steel fabrication. CNC programmed cutting and drilling places every hole, cope and cut to the model, first time, which speeds downstream fabrication and cuts rework on site. Whether you need processed steel supplied to your own shop or beam line work as the first stage of a full package, the accuracy is the same.
