AP Haslam expands service and efficiency

The new Perforex machine cuts down on time and increases accuracy...

AP Haslam has taken delivery of the Perforex BC 1007 HS from Rettal, adding to the speed and efficiency of the company’s workshop when it comes to supplying enclosures for industrial and hazardous areas.

The arrival of the Perforex in AP Haslam extends the company’s comprehensive range of solutions for panel building and switchgear engineering through key machining and handling technologies.

The Perforex machine enables hours of production work to be completed with increased speed, reducing the preparation time with its sophisticated software and preinstalled panel drawings.

As well as the enhanced time savings, Perforex delivers increased accuracy and reduced waste with its CNC precision-capabilities.

The Perforex machine can include up to 20 tools in the magazine for operations including drilling, tapping and milling. Perforex can handle panels up to 3600×2300mm and, since programming is faster than manual marking, the system provides obvious advantages from big batches to a single item production.

Speaking as the machine was being installed, Mark Tyson, AP Haslam’s Workshop Manager was looking forward to its advantages.

“The Perforex machine is extremely precise, and can be used for drilling, thread tapping, and milling, having this capability is a big leap forward for us and myself and Leon -our machine operator – are looking forward to showing our customers its capabilities”
