Hello, I am interested in hearing from anyone that provides flash welding services in the "field". I have a customer that has two jobs coming up 1 in Ohio & 1 in Michigan where they need to flash weld beams on an overhead crane system. Thanks Dennis Hake

Dennis: What size beams do you want to weld? We have several flash welders in stock, but they are typically not used in field installation work, as they are not portable. I would be very surprised if anyone can provide this sort of service. The only flash welder I have ever heard of that is used in "field" installation work is a very large machine with it's own generator that rides on a railroad car and welds rails end-to-end.
