Contract awarded to Fives Bronx
FIVES has signed a contract between
its UK-based entity – Fives Bronx
Limited – and Salzgitter Mannesmann
Stainless Tubes France in Montbard
for the supply of a six roll 6CR10-HD
straightening machine, complete with
ancillary electrical and hydraulic control
systems.
The equipment has been purchased
to process high-yield stainless steel
tubes up to 280mm in diameter, and at
wall thicknesses of up to 50mm.
Jon Dunn, managing director at
Fives Bronx Limited, said: “The order
was secured as a result of numerous
technical and commercial exchanges
that took place over a two-year period.
Despite fierce competition from several
European manufacturers we were
able to convince the client to invest in
Bronx, mainly based on our experience
of similar straightening applications
– a fact underlined by our extensive
customer base.
“We also demonstrated the ability to
integrate our straightening equipment
into an existing space-restricted
workshop layout and tailor the design
load of the main machine in order to
withstand the arduous loads associated
with processing such thick-walled
tubes. This contract award, once again,
portrays the trust and reliability that
our clients place in Bronx straightening
equipment.
Throughout
contract
negotiations, we have developed a first-
class working relationship and we are
looking forward to building on this in the
years to come.”
The equipment will be subject to a
full inspection in the UK prior to it being
delivered to SMST Tubes France in
August 2016.
