When Hurricane Katrina flooded, battered and mauled millions of dollars of machine tools at one southern shipyard, they needed repairs done fast and by a single supplier – even though the damaged tools were from many different manufacturers.

Their choice, Climax Portable Machine Tools: the pioneer of portable machine tools and a leading resource for tools, training, ingenious custom solutions and services for shipyards worldwide.

Climax had already proven to be as good as its word and tougher than any challenge in its path. In this case, Climax was able to get all the ruined hydraulic and electronic machinery back in business at the shipyard within four months – just as it had promised to begin with.

In every way machining affects your shipyard, Climax is your lifeline to save-the-day design, training, consultation and support. Learn about our shipyard support, and request a Climax corporate brochure at www.ClimaxShippingSolutions.com.
