An all-in-one AFM system with solid performance and easy handling, with a price tag and footprint that fit anyone and any place.

Laser cutting

We are flexible with our drawing guidelines; however, we do prefer the options listed below for a speedy process. If you have a different file format or need assistance in preparing your files, feel free to contact our team.

We specialize in profiling beams for both welded and bolted connections, serving a wide range of industries including infrastructure, offshore wind, process industries, and steel construction. Our advanced profiling process ensures exceptional accuracy, and we offer additional features such as welding edges, ratholes, holes, and slots for increased versatility.

HGG is active in various industries and takes a lot of manual work off your hands by cutting a wide variety of profiles, making it an extension of your workshop.

We take the weight of your shoulders with a simple and clear 4-step process that ensures quick delivery and meets the highest industry standards.

HGG has been cutting profile steel, such as tubes, beams and tubes, for decades with its own developed machines and software.

After receiving your final models and material we will prepare cutting files using our ProCAM software. Once these files are ready production will be started at our production facility using the machine which suits best to the materials that need to be cut.

Materials are usually delivered to us by you or your supplier. We have a large storage area capable of accommodating large-diameter and long-length material. However, we can also arrange transportation for you, ensuring materials are picked up and returned to the desired location. We partner with a transportation provider who offers daily services both within the Netherlands and internationally.

Learn AFM from our library of recorded webinars, covering different measurement techniques, modes, and areas of application.

Various beam profiles, including UNP, HEA, and HEB, can be efficiently handled in a variety of sizes and lengths up to 24 meters.

Gaussianbeam

We are certified by Lloyd’s Register Nederland B.V. to transfer markings and numbers and issue inspection reports 3.1 and 3.2 in accordance with EN 10204:2004.

Our machines can apply reference lines and footprint markings using either a needle or plasma. This not only speeds up fitting time but also ensures higher quality. By incorporating these markings into your engineering plans beforehand, we can replicate them directly in our production process.

Laguerre Gaussbeam

From our 40 years of 3D profiling experience, we know that every cut can be different. We assist you in the preparation of your project. From engineering, to welding details to optimizing material usage.

No extra post-processor is required because HGG’s ProCAM can import and read data for DSTV (NC/NC1) files. Enriched files, with a 3rd party post-processor are also possible.

Read detailed technical descriptions about selected AFM techniques and learn how to perform specific measurements on Nanosurf instruments.

Based on your data, preferably in STEP format, we send you a tailored project quote within a few days of your request. If you regularly outsource projects with us, we are eager to take it a step further by establishing a partnership. Assuring you with production capacity and price stability.

With our modern machinery with a large range, HGG takes care of all your profile cutting work within the requested delivery time. Due to our large storage area and machinery, HGG has a large capacity.

With our advanced software, we cut any desired shape, resulting in less fit time, welding volume and welding time. You will receive a complete construction kit from us, including the desired welding pre-treatment and any markings and fit lines.

In addition to the final cuts, we can add holes and slots for various applications. These can also be prepared with the desired welding preparations, such as a ½ V-groove or X/K-groove.

We regularly publish detailed reviews providing practical guidance and theoretical background on various AFM applications.

After completion of the cutting job, you will receive a message that your materials are ready to be picked up. If you need us to deliver the materials to your site we will make those arrangements.
