Thermadyne Automation (www.Thermadyne.com) and Torchmate CNC Cutting Systems have teamed to bring automation to metal fabricating shops, and to provide them with service.

“The Thermal Dynamics Aut-Cut and Ultra-Cut machines have allowed us to tap into a customer base we weren't able to get into before,” Bill Kunz, chief executive officer of Torchmate CNC Cutting Systems, said.

Richard Morgan, sales director for Thermadyne Automation, said the companies are seeking methods for improving their productivity through automation, and the combination is presenting new opportunities.
