Case Study: Hussey Copper

Hussey Copper, based in Pennsylvania, reaps significant benefits from its longstanding partnership with FAMCO.

In the industrial landscape, where operational downtime can lead to significant losses, FAMCO stands out as a beacon of expertise in providing rapid and reliable welding solutions. A recent incident at Hussey Copper underscores this commitment. In 2023, an unexpected emergency arose when metal became lodged in a metal baler. An employee attempted to resolve the issue using an oxygen lancing rod, successfully dislodging the metal but the incident damaged a large chunk of the baler exit door. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, Hussey Copper reached out to FAMCO for immediate assistance.

FAMCO responded promptly, executing a temporary repair that not only addressed the immediate concern but also proved to be remarkably effective. The temporary weld held up exceptionally well until a scheduled outage allowed for a permanent repair in September 2023. Ray Ribar, Senior Mechanical Engineer at Hussey Copper, praised the quality of FAMCOs work, stating, The welding job completed by FAMCO was one of the best that I have ever seen. His endorsement reinforces the trust and reliability that FAMCO has established over the years.

This incident is a testament to the long-standing partnership between FAMCO and Hussey Copper, highlighting a relationship built on loyalty and ongoing support. As Ribar aptly puts it, We have been calling on FAMCO for so long that I think they came with the building. This sentiment reflects FAMCOs dedication to operational excellence and customer satisfaction.
