Corrosion resistant. Durable. Low cost. Since ancient times sheet metal has proven ideal for applications in nearly every industry imaginable. Thanks to its malleability sheet metal can be formed, cut, bent or stretched into just about any shape.

At Proplate, we are proud of our in-depth technical know-how, and capacity to meet almost any requirements for size, volume and precision of sheet metal parts. By working closely with our customers and delivering at the top level over time, we design solutions with precision in every detail – that ultimately strengthen our customers’ competitiveness.

Deliveries of sheet metal parts to industries all over the world

From cut to machining, and weld to paint, Proplate delivers sheet metal parts such as tough components for heavy mining equipment, parts for construction machines and mission-critical lifting straps for cranes. More than half of our products are exported to leading manufacturers in the U.S., Europe and Asia.

Benefits with Proplate:

  • fast access to world-class customized steel
  • multi-process capabilities that cut lead times significantly
  • a long-term reliable partnership always available for expert advice

Steel plate cutting services with plasma and oxy-fuel cutting torches

Proplate is equipped with seven state-of-the-art steel cutting machines, all of which are fitted with multiple high-definition plasma and oxy-fuel cutting torches. This offers added flexibility for cutting numerous parts simultaneously, for maximum plate utilization, lower costs and shorter lead times. Thanks to Proplate´s unique production facilities, we provide leading steel plate cutting services that can process even the largest formats of thick steel sheet metal.

All you need in one place custom CNC metal cutting, blasting, and more

 

Our fabrication facilities, controlled by our experienced operators, run around the clock – ensuring that, not only do we meet our customers’ demands, but we can also guarantee shorter lead times than most industry competitors. With us, you get access to processing equipment such as:

  • oxy-fuel and high-definition plasma cutting Our facilities include custom CNC metal cutting machines up to 42 meters in length, for cutting thick metal plate with oxy-fuel gas and high-definition plasma torches.
  • CNC machining Proplate’s CNC machining capacity is an important part of our steel process facilities. We use five high-capacity Hedelius CNC machines for milling, drilling and advanced machining of special products up to 17 meters in length.
  • manual and automated welding Proplate offers manual and automated welding services through our two IgM RTE welding robots with Fronius TPSI 500 power sources. We are certified according to industry welding demands of EN 1090-1 and ISO 3834-2.
  • steel blasting, straightening and bending Our CNC controlled press brake has a pressing capacity of up to 300 tons for bending steel components up to 4 meters long. In addition, we provide two abrasive blasting machines and a hydraulic straightening press.

Capacity to cut thick sheet metal up to 300 millimeters in thickness

Proplate is equipped for metal plate cutting up to 300 millimeters in thickness. Our multiple high-definition plasma torches offer capacity to cut through steel plate up to 50 millimeters thick. High-definition plasma, although limited in thickness range, provides a much smoother and neater finish to your plate metal parts. Our cutting machines are each fitted with multiple oxy-fuel cutting torches. This form of cutting thick sheet metal provides the capacity to cut deep through metal plate up to 300 millimeters.

Our machines are CNC controlled and cut underwater to reduce HAZ. Additionally, the environmentally friendly extraction systems greatly improve the working environment for our employees.

Strategic proximity to SSAB’s steel production facilities

Through close logistical proximity to SSAB’s steel production facilities, supported by a close, long-term partnership, we offer our customers ready access to world-leading structural steels. Connected to SSAB through a private freight track, our customers get significantly reduced transit times of steel plate.

In addition, we are close to Stockholm as well as the nearby port, and the national railway extends right into our premises. An excellent strategic location that´s highly appreciated by our clients.

Proplate works independently with steel manufacturers such as SSAB, Dillinger, NLMK steel or any other leading manufacturer. This ensures that our customers can integrate their existing supply chain with Proplate for an efficient working partnership.
