Discover the possibilities of the PCL 600
Highly Productive
The PCL 600 is the most productive profile cutting line on the market, without compromising on accuracy.
Edge Cleaning
Combine HGG’s profile cutting line with an edge cleaning unit, which cleans the foot of the profile, enabling high-speed automated welding.
Bendline Marking
Inkjet marking is supported for the marking of text, reference lines, and inverse bend lines, simplifying stiffener bending.
End-cuts, cut-outs and holes
Cut any shape on stiffener profiles, with or without weld preparation.
Cut your profiles with plasma
HGG has distinguished itself as a pioneer in CNC plasma cutting. Since 1994, HGG has supplied over 500 3D profiling machines with plasma cutting technology worldwide and keeps innovating with plasma cutting technology to stay on top of the latest developments.
HGG offers unique features that further improve the quality of plasma cutting by compensating for plasma characteristics and/or prolonging consumable lifetime.
We support both Kjellberg and Hypertherm plasma sources. Two well experienced and industry leading choices.
Integrated Edge Cleaning Unit for faster and better welding
An Edge Cleaning Unit (ECU) provides simultaneous triple edge cleaning. Most fabrication codes demand that potential contaminants are removed from the welding zone and an arbitrary distance away from the anticipated toe of the final weld. HGG provides brush units and shot blast units that clean all three faces of the material. These machines are specifically developed for the purpose of cleaning stiffeners at variable angles and are incomparable to a flat plate or strip cleaning machine.
The advantages of edge cleaning:
- Faster welding
- Higher quality welding
