New laser capacity at Jenks & Cattell
Returning to Northern Manufacturing, Jenks and Cattell Engineering will showcase its range of engineering services including metal presswork, laser fabrication and welded assemblies. It also offers extras including riveting, painting/plating, bending and nut insertion.
The company has added a new Trumpf TruLaser 3030 laser machine, increasing capability, production efficiency rates and more than double the laser capacity. It will accompany an existing laser machine which cuts steel up to 16mm, and will have the ability to cut 20mm of mild steel, 15mm of stainless steel and 10mm of aluminium.
An attached, compact, lift master will enable the machine to run through the night.
Combined, the machines can offer laser etching, imprinting part numbers, bar codes, logos or any other markings on the component. The machines are highly accurate due to the automation, says the company, with an improved edge quality for both simple and complex components.
The laser machine can be used for prototypes and small-high volume of products at the most cost-efficient rate, as there is no tooling expenditure.
