AN OPEN LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
ONE IS A YODER 6 5/8'1 DIAMETER AND THE
SECOND ONE IS A 7" DIAMETER YODER MILL.
THEY WERE BOTH BUlLT IN THE MIDDLE
1960'S. THESE TWO MILLS CAN EASILY BE
COMBINED TO MAKE A RAFTED, QUICK CHANGE
MILL. ALL TOGETHER THERE ARE ABOUT 14
CONTAINER LOADS. ONE MILL IS LOCATED IN
BIRMINGHAM, U .K. WHERE IT IS IN STORAGE
AND THE OTHER ONE IS LOCATED IN
PORTLAND, OREGON.
WITH THE U
.K. MILL, WE HAVE A ROLL TOOLING FOR
1.9", 2 3/8", 2 3/8", 2 7/8", 3 1/2",4
1/2" DIAMETERS, WITH EACH DRIVEN ROLL
HAVING ITS OWN SHAFT AND BEARING BLOCKS.
WITH THE PORTLAND OREGON MILL WE HAVE
ALL IDLE (NON DRIVEN ROLLS) ROLLS FOR
DIAMETERS: 2 3/8",2 7/8",3 1/2",4",4
1/2",5 1/2", 5 9/16",6 5/8", AND 7";
FULL RANGE OF INSIDE SCARFING BOOMS
(MANDRELS); 66 FIN PASS TOOLING SHAFTS
WITH BEARING BLOCKS AND MANY MORE NEW
SPARE MECHANICAL PARTS.
WE HAVE
COMPLETE ENGINEERING DRAWINGS FOR BOTH
MILLS. OUR PRICE FOR BOTH MILLS AS IS,
LOADED INTO CONTAINERS $700,000USD.
MISSING FOR A COMPLETE PIPE MILL LINE IS
UNCOILER; STRIP END SHEAR AND WELDER
(STRIP JOINER) AND INDUCTION SEAM
ANNEALERS. WE HAVE A COMBINATION PEELER,
PINCH ROLL AND FLATTENER UNIT .
ALL EQUIPMENT IS BASICALLY IN VERY GOOD
CONDITION. I WANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT
THESE ARE THE SAME MILLS WITH DIFFERENT
SHAFT SIZES AND SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT PASS
ARRANGEMENT. THE MILL IN PORTLAND,
OREGON HAS TWO DRIVEN RESHAPING PASSES
AND CAN PRODUCE BOTH RECTANGULAR AND
SQUARE R.H.S. UP TO 150 MM
SQUARE X 8 MM. THIS IS AN UNUSUAL
OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE A LARGE AMOUNT
OF BASES, STANDS, TOOLING AND PARTS FOR
A SMALL AMOUNT OF MONEY AND CUT DELIVERY
TIME BY 3 TO 4 MONTHS.
THE WELDER CAN BE UPGRADED TO 300 KW
WITH A TUBE CHANGE. THERE IS ALSO
INCLUDED A COMPLETE SET OF SPARE MILL
DRIVE MOTORS. ALTOGETHER, THIS EQUIPMENT
AND TOOLING PACKAGE, INCLUDING THE
COMPLETE ENGINEERING PACKAGE MAKES AN
OUTSTANDING OPPORTUNITY TO PUT TOGETHER
A STATE OF THE ART PIPE MILL AT A
SAVINGS OF OVER 2 :MILLION DOLLARS
AGAINST THE PRICE OF A NEW MILL
IF YOU
INSTALL THE MILL FROM PORTLAND, OREGON,
AS IT IS, WITH THE DRIVES FROM THE U.K.
MILL, YOU COULD BE UP AND RUNNING VERY
QUICKLY, LEAVING ROOM TO INSTALL A NEW
ROTARY ACCUMULATOR LATER. YOU WILL NEED
AN ENTRY TRANSFER COIL CAR AND 10 METRIC
TON UNCOILER.
THERE ARE
MANY, MANY ITEMS WHICH ARE VERY
DESIRABLE INCLUDING A TALLEY RAND
DIGITAL PRECISION LENGTH CONTROL WITH
EXTRA NEW CONTROL BOARDS AND A NEW SPARE
ROTARY CUT -OFF TRAVEL CYLINDER. THERE
ARE OVER $200,000 IN NEW SPINDLES,
BEARING BLOCKS, BEARING CAPS, WELDER
SPINDLES AND HOUSINGS. IN SHORT, THIS 7"
DIAMETER YODER MILL, (PORTLAND, OREGON)
AND 6 5/8" DIAMETER YODER MILL
(BIRMINGHAM, U.K.) CAN BE AN UP AND
PRODUCING 7" PIPE MILL VERY QUICKLY WITH
A MINIMUM INVESTMENT AND WITH ENOUGH
PARTS LEFT OVER TO BUILD ANOTHER 6 5/8"
DIAMETER MILL OR BUILD QUICK CHANGE OVER
STAND RAFTS. THE HAND OF OPERATION WOULD
BE LEFT TO RIGHT .
WE HAVE GENERAL ARRANGEMENT DRA WINGS
AND PHOTOS AVAILABLE SHOULD HAVE FURTHER
INTEREST IN THIS EQUIPMENT.
PLEASE LET
US KNOW IF YOU PLAN TO COME TO PORTLAND,
OREGON AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AS WE ARE
PLANNING TO MOVE THE MILL TO OUR OHIO
WAREHOUSE.
