Tri Tool Announces New High Production CNC Counterbore Service
RANCHO CORDOVA, Calif., April 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Tri Tool
Incorporated today introduced a CNC high production counterboring
service for the offshore market with unique, seven axis CNC controls.
To meet the demand for deep counterbore machining of steel catenary
risers and critical pipeline construction needs, Tri Tool has designed
and manufactured the new high speed system with safety as a top
priority. "No one else has this technology, and now along with our
laser-assisted pipe end alignment, productivity will be tremendously
increased for our customers," says Todd Fox, Vice President of
International Sales. Tri Tool Services will operate the equipment
which will be mobilized for on-site service from the company's new
Houston location.
"In pipe yards and spool bases where safety is paramount and serious
injury is a concern, eliminating the need for any manual pipe handling
significantly reduces that risk," stated Mark Marshall, VP of
Engineering, Operations and Production. "Our engineers, as usual,
designed to our highest quality standards and developed patentable
features that will ensure that this service will produce the most
consistent and precise results."
The new CNC High Speed Deep Counterbore delivers deep counterbore
precision, rapid cycle times and superior surface finishes, using the
safest pipe handling system available. Safety is optimized in this
system with incoming and outgoing mechanized pipe handling racks that
require no manual pipe handling. Cycle times are optimized with
laser-assisted pipe end alignment, rapid machining by dual, seven axis
CNC machines equipped with real time monitoring and the latest in
safety features. The equipment will be manned by Tri Tool's
experienced and skilled technicians who are certified in its
operation.
Visit Tri Tool at OTC May 5th-8th at booth 2225 to learn more about
the latest in CNC counterboring technology.
