How Lisnave Improved Pipe Cutting for Ship Repair

For Lisnave, improving pipe production was about more than increasing cutting speed. The company needed a solution that could deliver better quality while reducing the work required after cutting. After researching different suppliers, the team visited HGG and saw the technology in operation.

Hugo Simões, Head of Production: “When I went to the headquarters of HGG and saw a similar machine working, that’s when we made the final decision: it has to be this one.”

Since integrating the ProCutter 900 into production, the benefits have continued beyond the cutting process. Pipe Shop Coordinator Ivo Nunes: “We have better quality and are much faster, with less cleaning time required. Because the machine produces cleaner, more precise cuts, it makes assembling the pieces much easier.”

With less preparation required between cutting and assembly, Lisnave can move its pipe spools through production faster while maintaining the quality its customers expect.
