Jarrod Slatter, the project manager at Coasteel Engineering in Australia, showed us all just how much power there is contained within the latest Ocean Avenger PLUS multifunction machine.

Jarrod was tasked with the project of improving an architectural component that they fabricate from HSS steel on a regular basis.

With a little math, some creative programming, a bit of trial and error, and the legendary milling power of the Avenger PLUS, Jarrod and the team at Coasteel were able to successfully create a joint that reduced the number of inches their welders need to perform, which in turn means less heat, less time and lower cost of fabrication, and a more aesthetic final product overall! TOTAL WIN!

Thank you for inspiring us all Jarrod, and keep on sharing your creative work. We look forward to seeing what you will come up with next.

And to all our fabricating customers, share with us what you have been doing lately – we would love to showcase your work!

So many of us purchase feature loaded devices, and then use only a fraction of the features. Just think of how much functionality goes wasted in our fancy smartphones every day, and yet we always feel the need to upgrade to the latest version.

So when we see our customers using all the amazing functionality of our Ocean Avenger PLUS, it is really satisfying that they are getting everything out of their machines.

The Avenger PLUS has a fantastic scribing and part marking capability, and it goes a long way to eliminating the costly tape measure from the shop floor. Having your fitter, read a drawing, grab his tape measure, framing square and chalk, and then layout where the attachments are to be welded is a time consuming and expensive task.

Using the powerful scribing tool on the Avenger PLUS to layout exactly where to weld the attachments helps reduce costs, increase margins and make for a sustainable business.

What makes this machine stand out from the average Drill Line?

The Avenger PLUS CNC Drill Line – Is a super fast and incredibly versatile beast of a machine and is like no other on the market. The term “Beam Drill Line” does not accurately depict the flexibility of this modern machine tool, as it can easily process a wide variety of shapes including angle, channel, plate, flat bar, t-sections, square or rectangular structural tubing, girders, tapered beams, rails, truck frames, rail car frames, and much more. The Avenger PLUS CNC Drill Line not only drills but also part-marks, scribes, mills, slots, taps and more — it truly is the most versatile CNC drilling machine available!

The Ocean booth was very busy as attendees watch Avenger PLUS demo.
