Output up 50%
18th February 2020

Plymouth-based Right Price PVCu says it has seen output increase by 50%.since installing an SMR-5 Welder from HAFFNER MURAT.

Director Travis Chiddle said: “We looked at what the market had to offer and approached Haffner Murat after reading about the SMR-5 Welder in the industry press and seeing it in action at FiT 2019.”

“We were impressed by what the machine had to offer, although we were sceptical when Dave Thomas of Haffner Murat said we wouldn’t need to use our other welder when the SMR-5 came on board. In fact, he was exactly right. We are welding frames so fast the saw centre can’t keep up. It’s a fantastic machine.”

With the SMR-5, one operator can weld four squares in four minutes. It’s also capable of welding two corner/transom/corner windows or one window outer frame and two sashes in the same four-minute cycle. In short, with the SMR-5 welder you can weld twice as many frames within the same time as a standard quad welder.

It guarantees 90 degree welding every time thanks to automatic head positioning and self centering for transoms. It is also able to cope with all window variations and complexities.

Travis concluded: “It is a breath of fresh air to come across a product that delivers exactly what the marketing claims. But the SMR-5 does. So much so, we are looking at adding a second machine when we expand our factory facilities in the next few months.”
