Equipment and

facility upgrades

for 2018

In 2017, Ryan Wholesale found that their order file (ETA) for timber trusses hovered consistently around 12-14 weeks.  Getting contractors to buy products this far in advance proved to be a challenge, and a few orders were lost simply because we could not meet the time frame needs of a few projects. Consequently, in October 2017, the decision was made for the company to purchase a new CNC timber processor that will not only keep our order file (ETA) at around the 4-5 week mark, but will allow us to perform intricate timber framing layouts, and other time consuming endeavors such as pergola kits, timber frame cabin kits, and intricate rafter, beam and hip modeling.  This new machine and software will allow us to process extremely detailed milling on glu-lam beams such as precision drilling and knife plate slots as well as perform precision cutting glu-lam componenents from a 3D CAD program. Check out the video of this amazing machine in the link above right.
