FORT WORTH, Texas - M&M Manufacturing Co. installed a new Mazak Hypergear 2D FMS laser cutting system. Primarily for use by M&M’s Precision Products Division in Fort Worth, the system is currently production ready. According to the company, this new increased capability will also benefit the residential products division by providing high quality rapid production of prefab HVAC components.

“Successful fabricators like M&M find that in almost all sheet metal applications, laser cutting offers unparalleled quality at high production speeds,” said Barney Shackelford, operations manager for M&M Precision Products Division.

“With our Mazak laser we can cut different part designs, of differing sheet thicknesses, without ever changing the machine setup. Superior edge quality, free from burrs, and narrow kerfs are standard.”

Rob Felton, COO of M&M understands that the economy “isn’t in the best shape right now. But, this is an investment in our future to ensure M&M stays an industry leader in HVAC and custom sheet metal fabrication. We at M&M have always been a subscriber to the advanced manufacturing philosophy in business.”
