With the equipment, Sedong now saves time and money on more than just the process of cutting their pipes. In the shipbuilding industry, with its demanding standards, many benefits come at the welding and inspection phase of the production. “We have been able to reduce manual work by 50% with the HGG machine because the cutting quality is so good that you don’t need to check the product for any cutting errors.”

Director Oh Sang-tae is confident the new SPC machine will quickly find its place in the company: “The software is very easy to use. Anyone can use it. And the machine itself is straightforward, easy to cut, and convenient for me to work with. We don’t think it will take long to make back the money we invested in the HGG machine.”
