The Metal Shop has taken delivery of a fantastic new Mitsubishi Fiber Laser. The speed is almost like Sci-Fi. We look forward to increasing our thru put on our laser jobs. This laser is equipped with a Zoom Head which allows it to run any material without changing lens's. In addition we have an auto nozzle changer which with our 8 shelf tower makes cutting multiple types of metal 24/7 a true reality. The fiber also allows us to cut copper and brass materials as well. Thanks to Mitsubishi for all the support through the years and into the future.

No part is too small to take great care in making. No part is too small to not matter. This is at the heart of all manufacturing. Take a watch and ponder this.
Shop was proud to be a part of the construction of the ICEhouse used at The World Economic Forum in Jan 2016 in Davos Switzerland. We used our Mazak Tube laser to cut each and every structural component of the building. We also use our press brakes to form the ends and even made the custom washers for the bolts. We packaged them into 3 crates and sent them off to the client in Switzerland. From here it was a huge success with many top diplomats and CEO’s of major companies touring the building. Very exciting for us to be a part of such an important project.
The upgrades keep moving ahead at TMS. We have just installed a brand new DMG Mori Vertical Milling Machine, the NVX5100. The new 2016 machine will allow us to speed up our milling processes and become more efficient in our work. The modern styling of the machine matches the DMG Mori NLX2500/700 we installed last spring. We think the look of the machine helps represent our company as we try to be, up to date and clean.
