PEGASUS INDUSTRIAL SERVICES CASE STUDY

PEGASUS INDUSTRIAL SERVICES

Pegasus Industrial Services, based in the Midlands, are specialist providers of precision engineering and bespoke steel fabrications for manufacturing, repairs, and parts replication, primarily for the factory and production industries. With onsite fabrication and machinery, Pegasus pride themselves on providing fast turnaround times and the ability to manufacturer high complexity parts to order.

Ensuring they have the right machinery to meet the needs of their customers has led to a long-term relationship with Bison Machinery. And when they needed to upgrade their capability, a contact call from Roddy Bushnell, Bison’s Managing Director, came just at the right time.

UPGRADING AND MODERNISING THEIR CAPABILITY

Gaz Rawle, Pegasus Managing Director, was keen to continue to grow the business. He recognised that to do so they needed to replace some of their existing machinery and invest in modern technology to upgrade their capability and capacity.

As he had dealt with Bison Machinery previously, Gaz was open to a discussion on their machinery needs and how we could help them ensure they had the right equipment to support their ambitions.

MOVING FORWARD

Having listened to Gaz’s specific requirements, Roddy was able to propose a package of machinery that would meet their needs to budget, a key factor given the scale of the investment for Pegasus.

A package solution also provided the benefit of having all the equipment supplied by Bison, ensuring machines were compatible and installation could be scheduled to suit the operation of the business.

And dealing with Bison as the sole supplier also meant the Pegasus team could see all the recommended machinery demonstrated in action in our showroom, providing assurance on their capability and how well they would work alongside one another.

As Gaz Rawle commented “Being able to visit the Bison showroom and see all the machines in action was a key part of our decision making. Given we were planning to invest in a number of new machines it was vital to know each one was the right solution for the business. We couldn’t afford to make any mistakes.”

THE SOLUTION

Having been assured of the quality and value of the proposed package solution, Pegasus decided to proceed and invest in a RVD SmartFibre PR 301 5.1 500 CNC Fibre Laser Cutting machine 415v, RVD SmartShear S 31 00.06 NC Hydraulic Swing Beam Guillotine and Morgan Rushworth PBS CNC 31 00/200 tonne CNC Hydraulic Pressbrake 415v supported by a Sterling SRA320 DGSA Double Mitre Semi-Automatic Bandsaw 415v.

All machines were installed by our trained service team and full training provided for the Pegaus team, ensuring they were able to get the best from each machine from day one.

OUTCOMES DELIVERED

With their new laser, press brake, guillotine and bandsaw package, Pegasus now have exactly the right range of complementary machines to support all their fabrication tasks. 

Amongst the many benefits delivered by the investment are improved operational efficiency, reduced production costs and the agility to respond rapidly to customer demands. Pegasus have also been able to bring tasks previously sub-contracted out back in house, providing more control over quality and delivery times. And at Bison we are delighted to have helped Gaz and his team achieve this.

WHAT THEY SAID

“Bison are local to us, have excellent product knowledge and we could see all the recommended machines in action in their showroom. Getting everything we needed from one supplier was a real bonus, saving us time and effort.

The engineers did a great job on the installation and training so we could get on with the job straightaway. All in all it was a hassle-free experience. Thanks for making that call Roddy!”
