Customer Spotlight: Macons & Soage Platform’s Manufacturing Growth Journey with HSG 615X Fiber Laser Cutting Machine
About the Company
Macons – Soage Platform Private Limited is a unique Indo-Italian joint venture bringing advanced European engineering to the Indian manufacturing ecosystem. While Macons is a well-established Indian brand, Soage is an Italian company globally recognized for designing aerial working platforms and lifting solutions.
Operating in India since 2017, the company designs its machines in Italy and manufactures them at its facility in Ahmedabad, India. Over the years, Macons–Soage has steadily built a strong in-house team and a robust manufacturing setup focused on quality, safety, and precision.
Understanding the Application: Aerial Working Platforms
For those unfamiliar, an aerial working platform is a specialized lifting machine — often referred to as a crane or man-lift — used to safely elevate personnel for maintenance, construction, and industrial operations.
The performance and safety of these machines depend heavily on the strength and accuracy of structural components, especially the boom sections that carry load at height. This made precision cutting a critical requirement for Macons–Soage’s production process.
The Manufacturing Challenge
As production volumes increased and quality standards evolved, Macons–Soage faced a key challenge:
- Cutting high-strength S700 grade steel plates with precision
- Maintaining consistent accuracy for boom components
- Scaling production without compromising safety or quality
Traditional cutting methods were no longer sufficient to meet these requirements efficiently.
The Solution: HSG 6015X Fiber Laser Cutting Machine (6 kW)
To address these challenges, Macons–Soage invested in the HSG 6015X Fiber Laser Cutting Machine with a 6 kW installed laser power, supplied and supported by Laser Technologies Pvt. Ltd.
This machine was selected specifically to handle:
- High-strength structural steel plates
- Complex profiles required for boom fabrication
- High precision and repeatability
The fiber laser solution enabled the company to process critical components internally with greater control over quality and lead time.
End-to-End Support from Laser Technologies
Beyond machine procurement, what truly stood out for Macons–Soage was the professional and comprehensive support provided by Laser Technologies.
Laser Technologies assisted the team with:
- Machine selection based on application needs
- Scaling-up strategy for future production growth
- Machine placement and shop-floor layout planning
- Guidance on additional auxiliary equipment
“We found the Laser Technologies team very professional and highly competent. Whatever questions we asked, they always replied quickly and in a very professional manner.”
This consultative approach ensured a smooth installation and faster readiness for production.
Results Achieved
With the HSG fiber laser cutting machine in operation, Macons–Soage achieved:
- Precise cutting of S700 grade plates
- Improved consistency and accuracy in boom components
- Better control over internal manufacturing processes
- A strong foundation for future expansion
The success of this implementation has reinforced confidence in laser-based manufacturing for critical applications.
Looking Ahead: Scaling with Confidence
With a growing team of 20 skilled professionals, Macons–Soage continues to invest in advanced manufacturing technologies. The company is already planning future upgrades, including:
- Addition of a press brake up to 3 meters
- Exploring 3D laser cutting to further enhance product quality
The positive experience with Laser Technologies has played a key role in these future plans.
“This association with Laser Technologies is one of the key reasons for our success and for repeating our orders with them.”
