Exploring a new Technology

It is with great pleasure to announce our movement into the true 5 axis machining area. We have completed our purchase of the first true 5 axis mill - the Matsuura MAM72-35V with the 32 Pallet Changer (PC32) and 320 tools.  

GlenDee/MGI has been machining 5 axis on a Fadal 60-30 with a rotary placed on the table.  

Creating Additional Capability

GlenDee/MGI is adding 3D printing to its capabilities.  Our newest 3D printer is the Stratasys Fortus 250mc.  This machine allows us to print ABS plastic, both for production and rapid prototyping.

This capability will be fully implemented by 10/1/2018.
