Hipra’s steel manufacturing workshop is equipped with highly sophisticated machines for cutting and
processing steel. For processing steel plates, we have following CNC machines:
– CNC plasma cutter line for cutting, equipped with machining tools for drilling, milling and
tapping, plate thickness from 6mm to 60mm
– CNC plasma cutter line for cutting, creating holes with true hole technology, plate thickness
from 1mm to 60mm
– CNC laser line 2kW power for processing plates thickness up to 20 mm
– CNC laser line 2kW power for processing plates thickness up to 35 mm
For processing steel profiles, we have following CNC machines:
– CNC plasma cutter line with one active head tool, profile range up to 600 mm
– CNC plasma cutter line with three simutanely active head tools, profile range up to 450 mm
– CNC laser line for processing all types of profiles
Also, we have:
– Robot hand for cutting and welding steel structure, working length 3000 mm, favorable for
serial production
All machines cuts and drills steel profiles, makes long holes and its scribing unit, enables weld
preparation (positioning). On all machines, marking units provide that welded steel parts are clearly
marked for easy assemble on site. Other leading machines are CNC universal milling – center (4000
mm working length, 4 axes) for steel parts with strict tolerances and CNC hydraulic press brake (600
tones, 3200 mm working pieces). All above-mentioned machines together, with plenty accessory
machines, make powerful combination for fast truck manufacturing.
Hipra uses Tekla software for steel manufacturing design. Our machines have the ability to be run by
Tekla software and because of that our design can be easily implemented without programming
machines.
Hipra employees more than 20 certified and skilled welders, working on modern welding machines
which enable company to achieve big amount of welded steel structure. For welding of thin steel
plates, we have laser welding machine. Welders can perform EXC2 and EXC3 class welds
according to EN ISO 1090. Hipra also employees an IWE engineer.
All of our steel structures are pre-assembled at our site for quality control purpose. After the steel
structure passes thorough dimensional and other inspections, HIPRA issues referenced control
documentation and needed certifications. Subsequently, steel structure is being sent to HDG
company for zinc coating and afterwards, if requested by client, is being sent to paint warehouse for
painting.
Thereafter the steel structure is being placed into shipping pallets and prepared to go to its final
destination.
