Your trusted source for new & used sheet metal equipment and metal fabricating machinery.

I bought quite a bit of equipment for the last ship I worked at through Empire, and it was always the best price and quality equipment. Sean Mashinter is excellent to deal with, very friendly, helpful, and understanding.

It’s a pleasure doing business with people so knowledgeable in the sheet metal industry. Excellent service.

We are very happy with our new Engel TDF rollformer. The machine produces the profile consistently and our installers are extremely pleased with the end product, it installs quickly and stays square.

Even though we had already doubled our staff size our workload was still increasing and we knew something had to be done. This is when Denise and I started to consider another major purchase, a CNC plasma table. While starting KEHFAB, Empire found all the machinery for us to set up shop so once again we turned to them on this purchase. Denise and I did the math and came to the conclusion that the plasma table was the perfect solution. Once the table was set up and started working for us we were able to eliminate all over time, yet monthly sales remained the same, it was crazy. It’s like we doubled our staff size again, only this new member of our team takes no lunches or coffee breaks and actually works while we are taking our breaks. Just over a year has gone by since the purchase and because our business is still new and growing we are back on overtime again but only because our business has increased. The Engel Viking plasma table has made it possible for us to keep up with our ever growing workload.

The PEI spot welder is an excellent quality machine. We love the control, it is very simple to operate – digital, no dials to play with. It has allowed us to do work we were unbale to do in the past.

WESTEEL purchased our DURMA E Series press brake in January of 2009 and we are very happy with it. It is precise and accurate and our guys much prefer the backgauge to the one on our old press brake as the CNC control moves it into the correct position when a program is entered. The DURMA control panel is simple to use and programs are easy to recall. The Safety Light Curtain pinch point guarding, is a real asset, we are compliant with the safety codes and production is not affected.
