Max Weiss Company is an industry leader in bending, forming and fabricating structural steel and other metals for a wide variety of industries.
Since 1946, Max Weiss Company has focused on "Setting the Curve in Excellence" ... and will never stop. Setting the Curve in Excellence for Seven Decades … and Counting
“Humble beginnings” can be an overused term. Yet use it we will, as it accurately describes the small local blacksmith shop where Max Weiss Company started in 1946. Seven decades and four generations of family ownership later, Max
Watch the hands of Dolph Ross, a metal rolling rocker at Max Weiss Co LLC, as he deftly works the controls of this forming machine to precisely bend a 5-3/4" steel plate into a half-circle. Every slight adjustment matters. The specifications are non-negotiable. "Close" isn't good enough. You don't learn this type of skill overnight!

These images simply cannot convey the time that Dolph Ross, a metal forming master at Max Weiss Co LLC, puts into forming these plates (5-3/4" H x 3/8" thick) into 180-degree half circles, and precisely trimming 12" off as the final step. The bending, the measuring, the remeasuring, the cutting ... it's more than a "multi-step process." Video coming Thursday!
He makes it look easy ... but it isn't! Alan Mathison, a metalworking wonder at Max Weiss Co LLC, uses a plasma cutter to create a 2" notch in this formed channel piece, then smooths it with a grinder. You don't see the measuring and preparation that ensued before the torch was lit, nor his years of experience and training that make the work look effortless. Much more than meets the eye!

Amid the shower of sparks, Alan Mathison, a metalworking wizard at Max Weiss Co LLC, is cutting a 2" notch (1/2" deep) into this 6" x 2" formed channel piece. Before ever turning on the plasma cutter, he carefully measured (and remeasured) to ensure the cut's accurate placement. Prepare for video Thursday!

Measuring up! Phil Steinke , a metal forming craftsman at Max Weiss Co LLC, measures and marks cord height on a 21" wide-fl**ge beam, with a 3/4" fl**ge width. The beam, weighing 44 pounds per foot, will be formed to a 126' inside radius. This isn't "measure twice, bend once" - it's "measure as many times as necessary!"

We had an exciting delivery last week at Max Weiss Co LLC: a well-maintained Round R7 machine, purchased at auction in Liberty, Mo.! The powerful metal roller weighs nearly 18 tons! Its arrival was preceded by construction of a square pit to hold the behemoth, similar to installation of our DAVI Angle Roll MCP nearly 10 years ago (https://lnkd.in/ddGiBjwi). This was certainly not your "everyday delivery!"

Nick Krenke, a metal working maestro at Max Weiss Co LLC, is forming this 4" x 6" x 5/16" channel piece to a 560' 8" outside radius. The bend is so slight you have to look hard to see it. Nick not only has the vision to do so, but the skill and experience to make it reality.

The art of metal bending often displays in minute increments. Nick Krenke, a metal forming master at Max Weiss Co LLC, shapes this angle piece (leg in) to a 560' 8" outside radius - a bend almost unnoticeable to the naked eye. Seeing may or not be believing ... so watch for video of his artistry Thursday!
