National Welding Corporation

and design specialty equipment specific to a project creates a nice package for our clients and lends itself to expedited performance. It’s still amazing to me that we can create a 3D model for a unique piece of equipment, operate the equipment within a computer-generated work space, and verify it will work. We then convert the model to piece drawings and send them to our fabricator, electronically, who enters the part into their cutting machines. We receive those parts for assembly, usually, within a week. “Our unique pipe carriers have allowed the rehabilitation of tunnels and pipelines previously thought to be obsolete and in need of replacement. Over the years, we have developed an arsenal of custom equipment packages which are intended to improve efficiency of our work force. Production welding skids and trailers combine welding machine, gas bottles, and tools all in a single package that can be handled by crane or a track hoe to the work area. Our tunnel packages are designed to be low profile and can be steered from both directions. Additional equipment includes a diesel-powered workman cart which can carry a worker with equipment through pipeline down to 48” in diameter and miles in length. These carts are designed with fume scrubbers to allow for underground operation. “As far as capital investments, we are focused on infrastructure expansion, upgrades, and rehabilitation. We have developed patented systems to fortify the structural integrity of pipelines that can also be used for bridge columns upgrades. When we see the need for unique equipment, or a novel approach to improve the progress rate for a project, we don’t hesitate to develop what is needed for optimal performance. From an environmental standpoint, our developed tunnel equipment includes treatment of exhaust fume to acceptable levels for confined spaces. We also utilize multi-unit electric power welding machines, which avoids the need for numerous engine-driven welders.” Penstock • Hydroelectric • Conveyors • Construction/Plate Work • Heavy Mining
