The new foot pedal control system enhancement is standard on all Scotchman hydraulic ironworkers ranging from 50 to 150 tons, including component tool table design, fully integrated, single operator, and dual operator models.

Scotchman Industries has introduced an enhanced foot pedal control system across its hydraulic ironworker product line, further improving operator stability, control and workplace efficiency.

“At Scotchman Industries, helping fabricators work more efficiently and safely is always a top priority,” said Brad Heltzel, General Manager of Scotchman Industries. “That’s why we decided to add foot pedal controls with extended handles to our Ironworker line.”

The new foot pedal design features an extended handle that makes it easier for operators to move the pedal between workstations while helping keep it securely positioned during operation. The handle also provides additional support, allowing operators to maintain better balance and control when engaging the pedal. This enhancement is now standard on all Scotchman Hydraulic Ironworkers ranging from 50 to 150 tons, including Component Tool Table Design, Fully Integrated, Single Operator, and Dual Operator models.
