ERS Engineering Corp. is pleased to announce another milestone, a signed off agreement with Ajax-CECO to become the sole Ajax-CECO representative for sales of their products on the Former Soviet Union (FSU) territory.

Ajax-CECO, A Park-Ohio Company, now is THE LARGEST FORGING EQUIPMENT SUPPLIER IN NORTH AMERICA!  Ajax and Chambersburg (CECO), now Ajax-CECO, have been in the forging machinery business for over 135 years. During this time, over 6000 Ajax machines have been built and put into operation around the world. Ajax-CECO has established a reputation as a manufacturer of rugged machinery that serves its owners for decades and makes products at closer tolerances than most of its competitors. The Ajax branded line includes, among others, mechanical presses, forging machines and automated upsetters, solid die forging machines, tube upsetters, trim and coining presses, wire and bar drawers. Machines are built to order, in most cases.

“This agreement is very good for both companies. Ajax-CECO is one of the largest and most experienced producers of heavy forging equipment in North America. It has few installations on the FSU territory.  It has never been represented with required engineering and manufacturing support. Today, the situation on this market requires rebuilding or replacement of this type of equipment for most manufacturers. 

ERS Engineering Corp. has many years of cooperation with AMT Engineering and has a very strong reputation with solid connections on this market. With AMT Engineering’s  strong engineering and production capability we will provide all the necessary support in sales, marketing and servicing to ensure successful supply of Ajax-CECO products”, – says Semyon Brayman, the President of ERS Engineering, Corp. 

ERS Engineering Corp. presents the New Tube Mill Line, designed and manufactured for the production of square and rectangular electro-welded tubes used for the constructions industry.

Main technical line’s data:

1.  Thickness range of using material: 3.0– 8.0mm

2.  Kind of material: S355, HR (hot rolled) with specification: DIN EN 10025-2

3.  Speeds of line’s work:  100x100x3 up to 35m/min   

250x250x8 up to 15m/min

Process of direct forming provides the following advantages:

1. Production of square or rectangular tubes through direct forming allows us to skip the step of round formation. This improvement saves material 3-5% because the material’s length is less than traditional lines used.

• Less space required than traditional lines.

• Square or rectangular tube dimensions automatically change only by program control on the following units positions:

• rolls horizontal positions in every roll forming station;
• opposite stations horizontal positions;
• vertical distances between rolls, in every station depending on the materials thickness
• records history about all standard square and rectangular tubes dimensions. Those records are saved or downloaded on/from PC.
• Every station of the tube mill line has its own PLC control, includes: own PLC, linear sensors- for all movements and touch-screen. This way every parameter change is controlled & resolved very quickly and easily with necessary roll position adjustments directly from the operator. These changes will also record back into the PC.

Line is also equipped with Thermatool High-Frequency Welder (it can do welding tubes by contacts or by induction coils), welding seam scarfing unit, cooling tunnel, calibration section (equipped with 4 pcs of calibration heads) – they are also automatically adjustable, flying cut-off unit (it is twin disks, orbital and cold saw type), run-out conveyor and packaging system.
