She is also surprised at how easy it is to operate the new system which includes ProNest CAM nesting software. “ProNest has been very easy to program and it allows us to get our parts cut more quickly. In addition, we’re using the Plate Inventory option which has improved our traceability.”

The addition of the new Hypertherm Built for Business products—which include a HyPerformance HPR400XD plasma system, EDGE Pro CNC, and ProNest software—has enabled the company to bring all of that work back in house and take on new customers. For Metal Corbert that means lower costs since it no longer has to pay another company to cuts its parts, and improved turnaround time so customers get their orders faster. The end result: higher profitability and happier customers.

Up in Quebec, a company that specializes in metal part production is experiencing remarkable changes in their operation. Metal Corbert, though quite successful, had an outdated conventional plasma table that was no longer keeping up with the company’s work load. In addition, cut quality from the older system wasn’t that great causing the company to outsource much of its cutting to keep up with orders.

However, since upgrading to a Hypertherm Built for Business Integrated Cutting Solution, this fabrication shop in Shawinigan, is seeing a marked increase in plasma consumable life and spending much less time on secondary operations.

General Manager Lucie Godin says her company is very pleased with the performance of the new Hypertherm system. “We’re getting 50 percent better consumable life than what was offered by other manufacturers.” Godin adds that her company is also getting excellent cut quality from Hypertherm’s exclusive True Hole technology.
