L&S Machine Company

“Our company has all 5-axis machines, so that we can support a variety of different industries. We got into 5-axis machining because it cuts the machining operations down. The first operation can pick up five of the six sides of a part, and the final operation can pick up the final side that’s bolted down to the table. Having all the same machines allows us to seamlessly schedule work between this facility and our San Jose facility, and having the same controller allows us to transfer the program to either location.”

– Rob DiNardi, President

Skrawpol

“Skrawpol Tool Factory is a modern Polish company founded in 2010. The main subject of the company’s activity is the manufacturing of cutting tools and special tools. We have a modern machine park, enabling turning and milling with high accuracy on three, four, and five axes. Our machine park includes the latest models of numerically controlled machine tools from Haas, which translates to the high quality of the tools we manufacture. We have a team consisting of qualified employees, both young people and those with many years of experience in the industry, involved in building our company.”

– Paweł Zoń, Co-Owner 

DesignWerkes

“Our company serves the commercial transportation industry, as well as the aerospace industry. We design and build the power conversion systems and the accessory power systems for hybrid public transportation buses. For the aerospace industry, we’re making parts for commercial and military avionics.

With the UMC-750, we’re machining five out of the six sides of the parts that we need to build, and we’re also doing simultaneous 5-axis work, with radiuses between ledges, which we couldn’t do without the 5-axis capability.

– Steve Kille, President & Owner

Boulevard Machine & Gear

“I knew it was time to invest in technology, so in 2009, we bought our first Haas machine. The UMC-750 that we have now allows us to complete jobs that used to take 4, 5, or even 10 setups on a 3 -axis machine, in just 1 or 2 setups. This allows us to take on more work.”

– Susan Kasa, President

Centerline Precision Technologies

When Centerline Precision Technologies of Edinburgh, IN – a longtime Haas shop – purchased their first UMC-750, they didn’t think they had the work for it. It was “more like a fishing lure,” says owner Scott Bringle. But, “it’s made a lot of the work we already had so much easier and more efficient, and with having that 5-axis technology, it’s brought a lot of new work to us.”

Core Moto

Core Moto designs and manufactures forged wheels for superbikes that compete in top-level road racing, yet are also street-legal. According to Luke McCracken, President of Core Moto, their goal is to produce the world’s lightest and strongest monolithic-hub forged wheel, while giving it some style. The wheels are machined on a Haas UMC-750SS 5-axis universal machining center, which removes upwards of 75% of the material in milling.

Customer Spotlight - Metalogic Industries

Four years ago, Massachusetts-based fabricator Metalogic Industries purchased their first Haas UMC 5-axis universal machining center to reduce setup times on complex parts they manufacture for land-based gas turbine power generators. 5-axis machining helped take Metalogic in a whole new direction, and today, they have a total of 7 Haas UMCs, along with more than a dozen additional Haas vertical machining centers.
