Diamond wire sawing for heavy industry
IpswichSpringfieldRedbank wire sawing
Diamond wire sawing for Ipswich industry, energy and defence infrastructure. Heavy sections, engineered cuts, crews from Slacks Creek.
Wire sawing in Ipswich
Ipswich is Brisbane's industrial and energy west. Power generation at Swanbank, rail workshops and freight at Redbank and Wulkuraka, defence at Amberley, and one of the fastest growing residential and commercial corridors in the country at Springfield and Ripley. The structures are heavy: turbine and generator foundations, switchyard plinths, rail bridges, workshop floors and machine bases.
That is wire sawing territory. The wire loops the whole section and pulls through under tension, so blade diameter never limits the cut. Wire storage does. Our flagship rig is a Hilti 30 kW twin motor electric wire saw, run off a minimum 80 kVA generator and rated for heavily reinforced concrete, masonry, stone and steel, wet or dry and partly submerged. Ipswich is the closest of our Queensland regions to the Slacks Creek base, so mobilisation is quick.
What we wire saw around Ipswich
- Power station and switchyard foundations during decommissioning and upgrades
- Rail workshop floors, pits and machine bases
- Bridge headstocks, piers and culverts on the highway and rail corridors
- Defence estate structures where method statements and clearances are required
- Heavy industrial foundations in the industrial estates
- Thick slabs and transfer structures in commercial construction
Experience we bring to Ipswich
Our nearest wire sawing reference is Roma Street Station on Cross River Rail, where Perfect Group sectioned a 12 metre reinforced capping beam into 4 metre blocks for the CBGU Joint Venture, vibration-free, in a live station zone.
Ipswich work is run from Slacks Creek. We have not wire sawed in Ipswich yet and we say so. What we bring is the method, the rig and the crews that did the job in Brisbane.
How we deliver it in Ipswich
We start with the structure, not the saw. Send us the drawings, or tell us what you have. We assess the section, the reinforcement, the access, the load path and what happens to the piece once it is cut. Then we give you a cut sequence, the temporary works it needs and a price for the whole method, not a rate per square metre.
Crews cover Ipswich, Springfield, Ripley, Redbank and the Lockyer Valley from Slacks Creek. We do not quote a production rate until we have cut your material. Nobody publishes one for a 30 kW wire saw in reinforced concrete and we will not guess.
If it is a slab saw job, a few penetrations or general concrete cutting, that is Perfect Concrete Care and we will point you there. We do not do residential. DeconCut is for the big cut.
Wire sawing elsewhere
The same crews and the same rig, wherever the structure is.
