CTG Bel-Kur (Temperance, Mich.) has enhanced its capability with the purchase of a new Haas UMC 750 5-axis vertical machining center as well as the establishment of an in-house 500-square-foot paint booth within its existing 47,000-square-foot facility. The new machine expands the company’s machining department, and helps to improve productivity when producing multi-sided and complex parts. Where a multi-sided or complex part would typically require multiple setups and operator handling, the new machine will produce the finished part in a single setup with increased accuracy.
The new open-faced paint booth brings this service in-house, enabling the company to better control its operations and serve customers in a more streamlined manner.
CTG Bel-Kur provides design, engineering, fabrication, build, commissioning and ongoing service for a variety of secondary materials processing equipment, specializing in post-mold solutions including cooling jigs and fixtures, bond and drill fixtures, trim dies and automated assembly.
