Measurement Rollers for Perfect Material Alignment

The PCL features eight precision measurement rollers to position the material and check for off-center alignment, indicating if the profile is bowed or bent.CEO

Easy-to-use Machine interface

The machine is operated with a central touch screen and a robust industrial keyboard, providing the operator with easy and efficient control over its functions.Safety Fence

Integrated Edge Cleaning Unit

The Edge Cleaning Unit (ECU) enhances welding speed and quality by delivering triple-edge cleaning that effectively removes contaminants from the welding zone, specifically designed for stiffeners at variable angles.Installed & Commissioned in 2 days

Cuts all commonly used profiles in Shipbuilding

The robot of the PCL allows all commonly used profiles in shipbuilding to be cut in 3D, enabling precise bevels and angular cuts.Torch

World's Most Productive Profile Cutting Line

The PCL 600, or Profile Cutting Line, is specifically designed to cut stiffener profiles used in the shipbuilding industry. Equipped with a highly capable robot, it performs three-dimensional profiling, allowing for precise cuts with bevels and angularity, ensuring maximum flexibility and accuracy for complex shapes.

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

Powerful CAD-CAM connections made by our in-house software team

Our software integrates seamlessly with all major CAD systems in the shipbuilding industry, including ShipConstructor, Bocad, Aveva, and Nupas Cadmatic.

Do you have specific CAD-CAM integration needs? No problem. With our in-house software team, we can quickly adapt, develop, and release the necessary updates.

Seamless Integration of Cutting and Welding Solutions

Our cutting solutions integrate seamlessly with the automated welding systems offered by our partner, Pemamek—a globally renowned provider of advanced automated welding and production automation solutions for high-quality steel fabrication. This seamless integration of 3D profiling and automated welding delivers crucial optimizations to your steel manufacturing process. Pemamek and HGG collaborate closely to innovate and enhance the intersection of cutting and welding.
