Some of the parts we manufacture have extremely tight tolerances. Accordingly, we needed a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) to match the precision and accuracy of our machining capabilities. There are a lot of great CMM’s on the market, but we ultimately chose the Wenzel SF 55. Their pre-sales support was fantastic, answering all our questions…

Mecha has experienced a tremendous amount of growth over the last couple of years. In fact, we have outgrown our current facility and are in the process of building a new one in Garner, NC. that is due to be completed in 2024. Although our new facility will be approximately 30,000SF, we will likely keep…

We are developing a new product, and we needed a way to cut some material that is not easily machined. Because we are currently limited on space until our new facility is built, we researched compact waterjet machines. For our current needs, the WAZER waterjet machine seemed like a great choice. It may not have…

A little over a year ago, we needed a more accurate 5-axis machine to make some challenging parts for one of our customers. After much research, we decided to go with a DMG Mori DMU 50. We have been extremely pleased with the speed and precision of the machine thus far. This is not to…

Mecha has grown so much in recent years that we have run out of physical space in our building for new equipment. We needed to find a high performance, compact machine to help meet customer demand until we can find a new building. After much research, we decided that the Datron Neo+ was a perfect…

In the past, Mecha outsourced any type of laser engraving requirement. We recently purchased a Trotec Speedy 360 to bring that process in-house. This has allowed us to shorten our lead-times reduce costs, and control quality better than ever with associated parts. We’re finding all kinds of other uses for the laser as well. It…

Mecha added a new CMM recently. The Keyence KM-T1200 uses a touch probe system with software that makes it really easy to set up a new program. Once the program is completed, the operator simply follows the on-screen photos that show where to touch the part for a measurement. This addition to Mecha’s inspection arsenal…

We’ve had this video in the “About Us” section for a while, but we thought it would be a good idea to highlight it here again to show one of our robots in action. We did all the machine integration ourselves, including the automatic door mechanism.

We have been extremely busy lately at Mecha. Due to increased demand for our services, we’ve had to increase capacity. We’re running three full shifts, expanding our facility, and adding equipment. Our new Haas UMC-750SS was just installed, and it’s already loaded with work for the next several months!
