Strip (Band) & Special Scarfing Machines
Classification: Special Requirements
GeGa is world-renowned for designing and manufacturing custom-made equipment based on specific customer requirments and our scarfing machinery is no exception. Many times, a customer will find that the whole surface of the material produced does not need to be scarfed and that the casting process is producing consistent, repeat problems in specific areas only. These situations may enable the design of a piece of equipment that requires significantly less investment in equipment and infrastructure, while at the same time resolves the quility requirments needed for the finishing processes. Some of the special types of scaring machines that GeGa has manufactured include:
Fixed Strip (Band) Scarfing Machines:
Machines that have a single burner that is fixed in a single position to scarf in a repetitive strips or bands over a problem area.
Selective Strip (Band) Scarfing Machines:
