CASE STUDIES
INTRODUCING “MEGATRON” – FH1250SX: LARGE, RIGID, AND HIGH-FEED TOOLING TECHNOLOGY
"The build of this machine allows you to push your tooling to the limit and maximize production. We have been able to reduce production time by 30% on average. These results have been outstanding for us as we can now reduce lead times and get more production through the machine.” Said Dave Halladay, Lee Specialties Manufacturing Supervisor.
On to Bigger Things—Metalcraft of Mayville Amps Up Machining
“We cut a bunch of different, mostly tougher, steel alloys made to withstand falling objects. Running these parts through the Toyoda’s was actually the easiest and most profitable,” - John Grotelueschen, Metalcraft of Mayville Machining Manager
