About the Ocean liberator
The Origin of the Ocean Liberator CNC Beam Coping Machine
|
|
The NEW Ocean Liberator is the most affordable beam
coping machine in the world, and is the result of a strong
ongoing collaboration with Peddinghaus, the number one
manufacturer of structural steel fabricating machinery.
Since 2003, Peddinghaus and Ocean have
collaborated to produce the worlds fastest selling beam line,
the Ocean Avenger.
More than 350 Avengers have been installed worldwide.
The success of the Avenger led to the
development of the Ocean
Clipper CNC Angle Line, which has been just as popular.
The third in the series is the Ocean Liberator
CNC Beam Coping Machine and is
the culmination of over 30 years of experience and specializing
in CNC Beam Coping.
Together with Ocean Machinery's well
established marketing approach and strong dealer network, the
NEW Ocean Liberator has immediately proved to be an instant hit.
