The Advantages
The processing of square, rectangular and round industrial tubing products is inherently more difficult than fabricating flat products. Although, pound for pound, round tubing has the greatest load bearing capacity of all tubular products, engineers and designers may reject their use due to the difficulties/costs associated with tube-to-tube connections. Additionally, tooling costs to work tubular material is many times prohibitive, further limiting engineering.
In summary, G&H allows its customers:
- Freedom from costly hard tooling
- Freedom and flexibility in engineering design
- Fabrication economy rivaling mechanical notching, profiling, perforating or cut-to-length
- CNC cutting accuracy with greatly reduced fabricating cost due to perfect fit-up
- Higher quality of completed assemblies
- Burr free components as-cut
- Greatly improved material yields over other tube processing methods
