Piranha began in 1974 when Harry Oswald and Bob Brown developed an ironworker to streamline production at the foundry where they worked. They recognized that other fabricators faced the same challenge and brought that practical solution to market. Those original Piranha ironworkers are still running today. Since then, Piranha has expanded from its ironworker foundation into a broad lineup of metal fabrication and thermal-cutting equipment. The integration of the W.A. Whitney and Bertsch brands adds more than 145 years of combined manufacturing heritage. From its Illinois manufacturing and support operations, Piranha serves fabrication shops, OEMs, and industrial manufacturers throughout the United States and North America with equipment guidance, parts resources, and knowledgeable service support.
An iron shear is used to cut metal stock such as flat bar, angle, and other structural profiles efficiently. In many shops, the shearing station is part of a hydraulic ironworker, which can also provide punching, bending, and notching functions. Combining these operations in one machine can reduce material handling, limit equipment changeovers, and support repeatable fabrication work.
