Case Study: L&S Machine boosts complex part production with Haas Automation 5-axis machining

L&S Machine boosts output with 7 Haas 5-axis machines

L&S Machine Co., LLC, a contract manufacturer for the nuclear, aerospace, and defense sectors, needed to produce highly complex, close-tolerance parts more efficiently. The company sought to reduce machining operations and setups while overcoming industry-wide challenges like the skills gap. They chose Haas Automation as their ideal partner for its machines, including the UMC-750 and UMC-1000 5-axis models.

By standardizing its shop with over 30 Haas machines, L&S Machine implemented a 5-axis machining solution. This approach from Haas Automation drastically reduced the number of required setups and changeover times for complex parts. The common Haas control across all machines simplified operator training and allowed for easy program transfer between facilities. The results were greatly increased output, more efficient factory floor scheduling, and the maintained ability to hold the extreme tolerances demanded by their customers.
