How this $20K Piranha Ironworker paid for itself in one year?

[@robertevans8024]

WOW, I couldn't imagine having to do that with saw or cutting torch. What a time saver. Clean edges and no oily mess. Cool tool !

[@UberArchangel]

If one machine can stop your shop you need a second. People can use both at the same time but, more importantly if one goes down you have a spare.

[@JesseKlaus]

At $2Xk it's not the cheapest spare.. but you're not wrong.

[@LoveInTheDumpster]

He said he could do it on the saw, it just takes more time. So not necessarily shut down but slowed down.

[@kb6lcw99]

Miss you Ron!!!!! I am still in California and every time I drive by the old shop off the frwy I wave hello....

[@AtlasSurvivalShelters]

Who are you ?

[@mpullen99]

I agree. My service division purchased a Piranha to cut, bend, and punch copper bus bars in the field. Saved a bunch of time. We mounted it on a utility trailer with generator and soft-start starter. Paid for itself after a year.

[@timothywilliams8907]

Beautiful piece of equipment. I just love machinery that makes a job easier. Doing it OLD SCHOOL is okay, but glad the technology exists for making a job go quickly and easily.

[@TheHarrelfarm]

we have a piranha and use it for everything cut, bend, nibble we even have dies that saddle pipe, such a great machine

[@jaynefarris7702]

big safety oops . no safety glasses the jaws can shatter on them . i have been a steel worker for 36 years . me and my dad was punching thousands of holes the next day the die busted and my dad was left with a piece in his chest. our old co owner was copeing angle it exploaded he is missing a eye now. VICTOR just be safe .love your shelters.

You take good care of the jaws on that sheer and it will pay off in spades. A regular grease and maintenance schedule won't hurt either.

Awesome video Ron! I was wondering where your videos had went. Used to pop up on my feed all the time but not lately. My job has me running a hydraulic horizontal bandsaw cutting all the channel for the mast on your Hyster Forklifts! It has automated feed which measures the channel length before I check measurements and start cutting. Nice piece of equipment lol Hope you're enjoying the Hysters 👍

I usually work 10hrs a day but I had to stand at the piranha all day and clip atleast 1000caps for tube 5 to 6 hrs in my left foot wasn't feeling to good from leaning on it and using my right foot to operate it but I got all of it done In 2 days but we have a saw in the shop that you just roll the metal in and measure it lock the vise and turn it on push the two green buttons at the same time and it just cuts by it's self and It comes back up when it's done take the metal off stack it on a pallet pull another metal piece though and repeat very simple once you get used to it took me 1 time and I remembered how to use it ever since

[@shermanthewelder3658]

A second iron worker would be a good addition but you might look into adding a crane. Ps. I'm a welder fabricator so don't take it as an insult but you might want to talk with your guys about wearing PPE.

[@TheRockstarSupreme]

You should buy 2 of those machines, Ron if it is THAT important to you, as well...as it would increase production time having 2 going : ) If you REALLY want to kick ass, you may consider getting robotic assisted welders....you could mass-produce larger / or modular items more efficiently and quickly. I have been watching all of your vids and the number 1 issue you talk about is you are soooo busy. Humans are terrific and needed but if you get into a pinch and cannot produce to meet the demands, having robots around might be just what you need....IN ADDITION to having human workmanship, got to have both. I am not saying replace people, but humans need rest, time off, and simply downtime. You could have the machines build all the major components while people are at home. : ) Just like an assembly plant : )

[@AtlasSurvivalShelters]

We can always use the saw but it's slow and costs blades

[@brentcrowder6726]

Ron, where did you pick this Iron Worker at and when?

[@taiganwind7787]

Ron- just get a laser. You make the same product over and over. You have to pay separate for the operating system. Get the programs made up for each part. I agree with the guy who says your staff need safety glasses. Steel under pressure can explode in unexpected ways.

[@AtlasSurvivalShelters]

Which laser machine are you referring o

[@taiganwind7787]

Atlas Survival Shelters -I use a Trump tubematic, but we run some flatsheet models. Don't fixate on names. Mitsubishi makes lasers as well. Fixate on the task and a salesman shall whisper into your ear. We paid for our laser in about six months. And ran the bag off it for a decade. Trained monkey stuff. I ran the trump7000 for six months before I found that there is such a thing as executive mode. The machine kept running on Unix while I frantically rebooted DOS.(did it with 2 minutes to spare)

[@_justgrant]

just imagine if you stepped up to a larger machine you could cut cycle time by 25%, and if you had a custom die made, you could cut cycle time by 75%

[@AKUSUXs]

Now you all need a few LASER welders. It would save a ton on wire and gas plus a person doesn't need a whole lot of training to learn to weld with them.
