Combining 21st century technology
with
19th century service
Harvest Engineering was established
by Kevin and Julie Galna in 1978 to facilitate the welding of
medium and high alloy steels, particularly in the Tool and Die
Industry. The majority of welding technology is concerned with the
joining of metals, or fabrication. We have specialised in the field
of analogous welding or color matching of steels. This is the art
of depositing welds so perfect that they can be etched in the same
way as the parent metal. This is critical in the manufacturing of
dies for the plastics molding industry.
As our expertise developed, so did
our reputation and we were asked to apply our welding knowledge to
a wide variety of problems. Some of the industries that we
currently service include Medical, Aerospace, Automotive, Plastics,
Diecasting (zinc and aluminium), Press tools, Containers and
packaging, Concast steel mills, Paper manufacturing, Newspaper
printing presses, Coining and hobbing tools, Hydraulics,
Hardsurfacing and many other fields.
Investment in state of the art
equipment has played an important part in our success. Robotics,
with the added ability to down load ‘real time’ welding parameters,
have expanded our capabilities beyond our expectations. The logging
of data enables us to undertake research and development projects
with absolute control of quality assurance requirements.
The most important investment that
we have ever made is in our staff. The most modern technology and
the most suitable welding consumables can often be wasted by poor
application. We have learned that people with the best
qualifications can not compete with those that have the best
attitude. Our staff are encouraged to gain further qualifications
in their field. Each employee is given the opportunity to study for
a Degree in their chosen field such as Metallurgy, Quality
assurance or any discipline that will enhance their knowledge. Your
problem will be solved by a person that knows what they are doing
and cares about the outcome. We welcome your inquiry. A problem
shared is a problem solved.
