University Of Hartford Adds Challenge Titan 265

By Bob Neubauer

"Three weeks felt like three years," he admits.

While running Trinity's Challenge cutter, Maselli couldn't help but be impressed with the machine.

"I fell in love with it," he admits.

So after asking other small in-plants for suggestions via a listserv and talking with his equipment supplier, A. L. Larsen Co., he decided to purchase a Challenge Titan 265 hydraulic cutter. With a maximum cutting width of 26.5˝ and a 4˝ clamp opening, the cutter boasts features like programmable electronic clamp pressure control, low-pressure pre-clamping, computer-controlled backgauge and unlimited program storage capacity. Changing blades is much easier than with the old cutter, Maselli says, and the quality of the cutting is far better.
