Piranha CNC Fiber Laser owners receive lifetime service and support, including remote diagnostics, phone and email assistance, training options, and same-day shipping for in-stock parts.
Piranha ironworkers combine punching, shearing, bending, and notching capability to help fabrication teams complete multiple metalworking operations with dependable equipment.
In-stock equipment can be prepared for shipment from Rockford, Illinois, with Piranha able to arrange transportation and clarify flatbed, protection, freight, and insurance requirements.
Precision metal tooling depends on more than a single machine—it requires equipment that supports clean cuts, repeatable positioning, safe operation, and efficient material flow. Piranha brings laser cutting, ironworking, bending, retrofit, and configuration options together for U.S. fabrication operations. Our team helps customers evaluate capabilities before purchase, then provides domestic service resources, training, parts access, and scalable solutions that can support future production growth.

Fabrication knowledge built around real production challenges.
Piranha began in 1974 when Harry Oswald and Bob Brown developed an ironworker to streamline production at the foundry where they worked. That practical solution became the foundation for a broader metal fabrication equipment company serving shops and manufacturers across the United States and North America. Today, Piranha’s heritage also includes the W.A. Whitney and Bertsch brands, extending its equipment history beyond 145 years. From its Illinois manufacturing and support operations, the team provides fabrication expertise across laser cutting, punching, ironworking, bending, plate rolling, and related workflows. Piranha’s vision remains rooted in helping customers select durable equipment, improve production efficiency, and build scalable capability with responsive domestic support after the sale.
Precision tooling means designing and using tools, dies, fixtures, punches, and machine components that hold very tight dimensional tolerances. The goal is to produce parts consistently with accurate hole locations, clean edges, repeatable bends, and dependable fit-up. In metal fabrication, precision tooling also supports faster setup, lower scrap rates, and more reliable results across recurring production runs.
