Six machine builders from the United States, Japan, Germany, Italy and Taiwan — Expand Machinery, Hasegawa, Spinner, Mandelli, Shibaura and Cosen. Each one below with where it builds, what it builds and a video, and the LOMA machine pages that go deeper.
GEN TURN Swiss and turn-mill lathes and GEN MILL machining centers — accessible precision, in stock, with the North American import of Hasegawa’s Japanese-built models.
The Made-in-Japan flagships — PM320-5X, C24 G, C52 MYS, CW52 MY and CW52MY GII. Small, rigid, thermally stable machines for the tightest tolerances.
German-built at the high end: two- to four-turret lathes for high-production work, submicron and turn-grind machines, and 5-axis machines from a compact trunnion to a swivel-head machine for 2,000 kg parts.
4 & 5-axis horizontal machining centers and the automation around them: the compact SPARK 2 HS for Northeast-size parts, SPARK machines to four metres and 20 tonnes, and the RUMBLE profiler for six-metre titanium parts.
Ultra-precision since its first aerostatic spindles in 1977. The UVM nano-precision centers hold sub-micron accuracy and mirror finishes, and measure their own work unattended.
Production band saws from raw stock to near-net blanks, with Q-Cut control and automated material handling — the first operation of the cell, run unattended.
