# What to Expect at AHR Expo 2019

Jan 1, 2019 | by Katherine Sargeant

With the [2019 AHR Expo](https://ahrexpo.com/) only a few weeks away, the team at [Mestek Machinery](https://vimeo.com/271337938) is getting very excited to show off a diverse sample of machinery to attendees. Here’s a sneak preview of the machines we’ll be bringing with us:

## ![Laser Max Product Image 2018 large](https://blog.mestekmachinery.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Laser-Max-Product-Image-2018-300x149-1.png?width=500&height=249&name=Laser-Max-Product-Image-2018-300x149-1.png)

## Vulcan Laser-Max 1.5

The next evolution in the Vulcan cutting systems is the Laser-Max 1.5. With minimal heat affected zone on the cut edge, the parts coming off the machine will cause less wear to downstream fabrication equipment. Minimal kerf combined with 4-axis controls enables the cutting of intricate patterns.

[Learn more](https://www.formtektemp.com/mestekmachinery/machines/vulcan-laser-max-1-5)[here](https://www.formtektemp.com/mestekmachinery/machines/vulcan-laser-max-1-5)

## D-Max 2.0E

The D-Max 2.0E is a revolutionary Automatic Spiral Tubeformer that combines the most advanced technology with one of the smallest footprints in the industry. Unlike other compact models, the D-Max 2.0E won’t sacrifice speed, power or technology.

## ![vulcan waterjet product image](https://blog.mestekmachinery.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/waterjet-1600-transparent-300x192.png?width=500&height=320&name=waterjet-1600-transparent-300x192.png)

## Vulcan 1600 Waterjet

The Vulcan 1600 WJ is designed with traditional Lockformer quality and reliability, to eliminate the duct liner bottleneck in your shop while reducing the labor associated with this process. HVAC contractors rely on this insulation cutting software and table to increase shop productivity, reduce waste, and improve their bottom line.

## 800 Series Roll Former

The HB-825 Pittsburgh roll forming machine has 8 forming stations with 2 forming positions.  One inboard forming position forms the Pittsburgh lock and one auxiliary or outboard forming position has the capability of forming 1 of 3 different profiles.

## ![Cornermatic Whisper-Loc Combo](https://blog.mestekmachinery.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Cornermatic-Combo-1-300x204-2.jpg?width=500&height=340&name=Cornermatic-Combo-1-300x204-2.jpg)

## Cornermatic Combo

The CORNERMATIC II® ~ WHISPER-LOC® COMBO is a unique, innovative machine that not only inserts and crimps corners into both ends of ductwork but closes longitudinal Pittsburgh seams on the same ductwork when required. This design allows the operator to accomplish both corner insertion and seam closing on one machine without having to handle the ductwork between processes.

We hope this is a nice preview of what’s to be seen, and we’ll [see you in Atlanta](https://ahrexpo.com/) from January 14-16!
