Testimonials
"All my men and the Fletchers guys were well impressed with the course you certainly have delivered a top package with the course and equipment. This equipment will be definitely the most worthy piece to have in our tooling kit. I would like to thank you for taking the time to fly down and show us the correct methods to use the Brocco lancing equipment."

"Just a quick note in acknowledgement of the Thermic Lance equipment and training you provided. Our maintenance crew used it to remove a cracked circumferential weld from one of our big road rollers. Usually we would grind the damage out and reweld with low hydrogen rods which would take up to two days. Using the Brocco lance the procedure you taught us had the work totally complete in 4 hours.
The end result is: 12 hours of the labor time saved and the 12 hours extra hire income gained.
We certainly recommend this equipment for repairs of this nature. Removal of worn pivot pins on equipment is another application where Brocco equipment has no equal. Gouging these out takes just a few minutes where pressing them out can take hours.
We now have Brocco equipment in hand to hire out to suitably skilled trades people."

We are "L C Hydraulics" specializing in all hydraulic systems. We are based in Whangarei and are regularly called upon to remove and service rebuild large hydraulic units which have been exposed to the weather, excessive wear and corrosive environments over long periods. The pins retaining some of these units can often take many man hours to remove using conventional means such as hydraulic presses etc. br> As a result of this situation we have recently specialized in using the Brocco Ultra-Thermic Cutting / Gouging equipment for removing these difficult pins.The advantages to our customers and ourselves are self explanatory and always results in much less down time and increased productivity for our clients.

A recent example: Pins measuring 220mm long x110mm diameter. We were able to pierce though each pin and gouge it in half and have it on the ground it under 10 minutes. br> Using conventional equipment, each pin would have taken many hours of manpower to extract without the use of the Brocco System.

The Brocco Ultra-Thermic Cutting system has proved to be a brilliant cost efficient system. br> This equipment along with the training on how to use it effectively, has provided our business a greatly enhanced and unique operational capability.
