The largest machine shop north of Brisbane.
150 t workpieces machined in Mackay — instead of on a truck south.
The claim is carried by the machine list.
The largest machine shop north of Brisbane. CNC floor borer with 13 m of travel and 6 m column for workpieces to 150 t; 5 m CNC vertical borer; 3.5 m twin-post vertical borer; CNC lathes for components over 40 t; internal and external gear cutting to 5.5 m diameter. Detailed QA packages with all completed work.
Dragline drums, slew rings, gear cases and baseplates are turned to drawing on the same floor that fabricates, hardens, fits and paints them — so the job never leaves Paget between operations.
The machine list
Where a job lands inside these limits, it is machined in Mackay — not trucked south. Read it like a calibration sheet.
