Company Overview
FH Welding Machine Limited was established in 1952 in Windsor, Ontario. It relocated to Toronto in 1955. It was purchased by the present owners, Hartshorn & Harper in1981and moved to its present custom designed and built facility a 44 000 sq. ft. building in 1987. There are approximately 45 full-time employees. Areas of expertise include: Mechanical and Electrical design; Electrical controls assembled and wired on site;
Complete fabrication and machining capability; Robotic and PLC programming; Dimensional verification; Initial process concept and budgetary pricing; Product design improvements; Prototype assembly; System design, build, installation and commissioning;
Support for EC's and process improvements.
Process Development
Processes developed by or in partnership with FH: shock and strut roll closure, improved piston teflon banding machine, mastic heat staking, portable electric braze gun, tube piercing, hot upset assembly of decking pins, hydro-formed tube welding.
The FH Advantage
Competitive pricing through low Canadian dollar, short delivery lead times, access to North America, technology to compliment European technology, Canada is a nice place to visit, (Niagara Falls, CN Tower, etc.)
Future Growth Possibilities
Laser Cutting and Welding, CNC Machining, Hemming Machines, Complete prototype management, capability, stamping and welding.
Acquisition or partnership with die shop for complete project capability

New Technology at GKN
REO Hydro-Pierce Units used for both the VE64 and the CB40 lines, allowed dual piercing in tight spaces, can pierce very heavy materials (2 x 3.5mm - 8 mm dia.), eliminated slow, dirty and high maintenance drilling operation
Vacuum Slug Extraction allows piercing from an inverted position used in VE64 & CB40
Tube Piercing servo driven tube piercing over mandrel used in CDW27 eliminated drilling operation
OHMA Systems Transguns, very competitively priced small package allows more design flexibility, air over oil offers superior weld quality.
