our services

a full-service machine shop to meet changing customer needs

To serve our customers' needs, we have created a process that covers machine shop operations from providing quotes, laser cutting and welding to edging, machining, painting, assembly, finishing and efficient logistics.

Expert design and product development, including 3D modelling and manufacturability consulting, will complete your customer experience.

laser cutting

Laser cutting has been a daily routine at Welding and Construction Aho for three decades. The first laser cutter was purchased back in 1994, and since then the equipment has been regularly upgraded.

The latest investment is the laser Bystronic, a 10 kW fibre laser with a 64-slot automatic storage system. The automatic storage allows unmanned operating during night shifts.

welding

Experience, know-how and extraordinary competence provide a solid foundation for our welding services, from manual welding (Mig/Mag and Tig) to robotic welding (our robot handles products weighing up to 5000 kg, has a linear track of 18m and a height of up to 3m).

Further processing of pieces under one roof. All operations are in your own hands, from laser cutting to finished, painted and assembled products. This enables us to offer more cost-effective production, higher quality products and faster delivery times than our competitors.

Welding in our company is coordinated by an IWE qualified person and we operate according to the ISO 3834-2 standard, which will be certified in August 2024.

edging

Bending is a working method in which a steel plate can be bent repeatedly and accurately. We have three edging presses, the largest of which has a clamping force of 320 tonnes. The maximum width of the billet to be bent is 4 m. Bending is generally a step in our manufacturing process, but we also subcontract bending services alone.

Along with our new fibre laser, our cutting service will be extended to cut and edged pieces, either unpainted or painted.

machining

Machining and any related tasks should be carried out by an experienced professional. We guarantee quality deliveries - always on time.

Our machinists are professionals for whom quality and agreed deadlines are a matter of honour. They have decades of experience in machining.

Our equipment can also be used for complex machining. We have three vertical machining centres and four lathes for turning. In August, we will have the latest confirmation with the delivery of the new Mazak 5-axis lathe.

painting

Our service covers both wet and powder painting. We paint according to the customer's wishes, the most common painting method being priming and topcoating according to RAL codes.

We get a lot of praise for the fact that painting can be done under the same roof as the rest of the work, without having to send pieces elsewhere to be painted.

assembly and contract preparation

Assembly has been part of our service almost from the beginning. Our skilled team can handle even the most demanding assemblies and, with the help of our partners, we can also carry out electrical installations.

Assembly and contract manufacturing are our growing services and the demand for them is expanding.

product development and design

Our particular strength lies in optimising manufacturability together with our customers' design, to ensure the most cost-effective end result. This is also the culmination of our promise:

WE CREATE VALUE WITH STEEL-KNOWHOW

The planning phase is where 80% of the cost of the product is decided. All manufacturing machine shops know this. We have taken this as an opportunity to deliver even more value to our customers.

With decades of experience in the engineering industry, we know that this is the part of our expertise that brings the most joy and benefit to our customers. That's why we are constantly developing it into a stronger part of what we offer.

container/bed production

We design and manufacture customised earthmoving, gravel, asphalt, scrap and interchangeable beds and containers.

Our efficient manufacturing process from order to delivery takes anywhere from a few weeks to a few months. We have supplied pallets to general contractors as well as private truckers.
