Southern States Machinery has served manufacturers and fabricators since 1995. We are experts in fabrication and machine tools technology. We have an office in North Carolina as well as an office Florida. This gives us the ability to support and sell the most recent fabrication technology.
Many people assume that H beams or I beams are the exact same. They aren't. While they might share the same structure, purpose and goals, they aren't one in the same. Here are some important differences to remember:
Gulf States Saw & Machine Co., Inc. has been providing professional fabrication equipment to professional fabricators since 1992. The nerve center of our operations is in Hueytown, Alabama, where we can serve our ten-state region effortlessly.

This platform includes rail guards, stairs and a platform. This platform is for flux and wire storage. The operator can load flux hoppers onto the platform and then change wire drums and reels from the platform. Add auxiliary equipment to your Beam Layout Welding machine like the PHI's Beam Turning Device or Flange Titling Device. This will increase speed, agility, and productivity.
For crane beam manufacturers, a special Beam Layout Welding Head design is available. The top flange of crane beams is a "C" channel with the short sides pointing inwards towards the beam.
FRANKLIN MODEL PTW72, a complete Automatic submerged dual-arc welding system. It can fixture and weld three-piece, built-up beams that consist of a web and two Flanges. The PTW-72 is capable of a web width of 72 inches and flange capacity of 20 inches wide x 1/4" thick. A PTW72 fabricating unit can reach 300 ft. The system includes a web loading gantry and web seam station. A tack station unit is also included.
Each conveyor section has a load capacity of approximately 4,000 lbs. To minimize friction between the turning roller at the welder entry and the slower-moving beam at its entrance, conveyor speeds are synchronized to welder input speeds.
A welded beam consists of three individual sections of steel – a web, a top flange and a bottom flange. These segments are merged together with deep fillet welds to create an incredibly robust building material.
