We are VERY happy to see our two new machines now sitting on the floor of the shop -

- A brand new TL-15 dual spindle lathe with live tooling, 20 HP / 2.0" bore w/ automatic Barfeeder
- A 2007 TL-25 dual spindle lathe with live tooling, 30HP / 3.0" bore w/ automatic Barfeeder

The addition of these two machines will combine turning and milling operations, as well as allow for back side machining, all in one setup. This translates to fully finished parts, eliminating the need to pass the parts from one machine to another, introducing the possibility for human error, as well as eliminate nearly all post-machine deburring processes.

Take a look at our new setup!

VF-2YT, the new machines will relieve a lot of load from this machine and allow us to start coming up with new milled product.
