Scotchman is revving up to return to the biggest metal fabrication industry event in North America, this year held in Atlanta, Georgia.  

At FABTECH 2018, we will be demonstrating several models of our trusted metal fabricating machinery, as well as featuring automating solutions you can use to propel your business further.

Scotchman Industries will be bringing the best circular cold sawing systems for the aluminum extrusion market to Vegas this fall for GlassBuild America. If aluminum is not your thing we have a full line of ferrous and non-ferrous saws, manual to fully automatic.

Read below to see what the event is all about, what we're bringing to Sin City, and how you can get a free pass. 

Summer will be over before we know it, but there's plenty to look forward to this fall. At Scotchman, one of the things we're most excited for is IMTS in Chicago!

Do you still need to register for the 2018 International Manufacturing Technology Show? It's the second largest metal fabrication show in the country, and not something you'll want to miss (September 10-15, 2018).

Here's a preview of what machines you can expect to see when you visit Scotchman's booth at this year's conference.

Properly maintained cold saw blades should last a long time, even with extensive use. One tip to prolong the life of your saw blade is to be meticulous when changing the blade on your saw.  Listed below are simple, yet critical practices to follow every time a blade is changed.

A properly maintained cold saw blade should last a long time, even with extensive use. Circular cold saw blades can endure as many as 800 to 1,000 cuts before needing to be sharpened, and they can be sharpened up to 30 or 40 times during the lifespan of the blade.

Here are five tips to remember to get the most life out of your saw blade.

If there's anything we love to see at Scotchman, it's satisfied customers and the incredible things they are building with the help of our machines. What’s even better is knowing that our sawing systems and ironworkers are allowing our customers to bring their work back in-house.

Our machinery is constantly going on tour.  Make your shop our next stop!

We have 16 mobile demonstration vehicles located throughout the lower 48 states. Each demo vehicle is equipped with a range of hydraulic ironworkers, circular cold saws, tube and pipe notchers, and measuring systems ready to demonstrate at your place of business.

Scotchman Industries is going international to attend two of North America’s largest metal fabrication events: FABTECH Mexico (May 2-4, 2018), and FABTECH Canada (June 12-14, 2018). 

We’ll be taking our ironworkers, circular cold saws, and other metal fabrication products to THREE different locations in North America so metal fabricators across the continent can see first-hand how our machines have the ability to add value to their businesses.

At Scotchman, we’re always looking for opportunities to make connections with fabricators and businesses–– learning about their metal fabrication needs and discussing how our products and dedicated sales and service teams can help.

Although it’s still a few months away, registrations are officially open for FABTECH Mexico and FABTECH Canada. Keep reading for a preview of both events, and learn why you should make plans to visit the Scotchman booth!

Every business claims to have excellent customer service, but we all know this claim isn't always the truth. 

In today’s world, it has become harder to find a real person to speak with on the phone, let alone see them face to face. All too often, when trying to navigate through an automated phone system it can become a long and drawn out process. When you’re provided with a long list of options to choose from, with many of these options leading you to a voice mail box anyway or directing you to a website.

This form of “service” is rarely helpful, and usually quite frustrating. Luckily for you, Scotchman Industries believes in the human connection and highly values open communication. Which is why we ALWAYS have someone answering our phone during office hours.

At Scotchman, our business is building ironworkers and cold saws, but our company was also founded on the principle of providing well-built machinery to help our customers find efficient solutions for their shop needs.
