Versatile Piranha ironworkers perform punching, shearing, bending, and notching in one machine, helping shops complete common fabrication tasks with fewer equipment changeovers.
Tri-Speed Electrical Control Package Retrofits modernize older plate bending machines with reduced-voltage controls, a NEMA-12 enclosure, and two-hand operation designed to support current safety requirements.
Piranha helps fabrication teams build a more capable production line with equipment designed for repeatable results, durable performance, and scalable output. Configure solutions around the work you perform today while retaining room for automation as demand grows. From clean cut edges and accurate hole positioning to dependable parts access and expert guidance, Piranha supports a practical path toward less downtime and stronger return on investment.

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. Today, Piranha builds on more than 145 years of combined heritage through the W.A. Whitney and Bertsch brands, offering a broad range of metal fabrication and thermal cutting equipment. From its Belvidere headquarters and Rockford manufacturing and assembly facility, the team supports manufacturers with equipment knowledge across the shop workflow. Piranha’s vision remains grounded in real production needs: help customers reduce downtime, gain efficiency, and make confident investments in equipment that can grow with their operation.
Piranha offers a broad range of metal fabrication and cutting equipment, including CNC fiber lasers, plasma systems, combination punch/plasma machines, ironworkers, press brakes, plate rolls, shears, structural punching equipment, and punch tooling. For the solutions highlighted here, Piranha provides high-throughput laser cutting, multi-function ironworking, and electrical control retrofits for older plate bending machinery.
