A leading manufacturer of modular office solutions for offshore installations has installed an Elcon vertical panel saw for cutting timber and other materials.
Aberdeen-based Aiken Group, whose work includes projects for oil rigs operated by BP and Shell, needed a vertical saw for cutting a variety of materials.
Aiken chose an Elcon 155DSX, featuring a pneumatically-operated moveable frame and a heavy-duty 5.5kW motor providing two saw spindle speeds together with a Niels atomising spray lubrication system and moisture filter.
Dust extraction equipment was also provided together with delivery and commissioning services using the company’s own specialist transport and engineers.
Aiken Group also has a construction and property services division serving customers such as Cala Homes, McCarthy & Stone and Stewart Milne.
