Heartland Fabrication & Machine Installs New Komo High-Speed CNC Router

Heartland Fabrication & Machine, Inc., Lee's Summit, Missouri, has recently installed a new Komo High-speed VR 1205TT CNC Router.

"This new CNC router, first in the U.S. in a job shop, enables us to diversify our offerings and serve new customers in a wide variety of industries," stated Mike Hudson, owner.

"A lot of companies that currently own a CNC router are industry specific and don't promote the machine due to the competitive edge they get when quoting parts."

Hudson plans to promote this machine to reach multiple industries.

The Komo features: twin spindles (24,000 rpm); dual pallets-, a 6' x 12' work surface, 3,000-ipm cut rate, .00005" repeatability and automated chip removal. It can handle aluminum, plastics, wood, cultured marble and many manmade materials.

The company will be releasing 3-D sculptured products under the name of No Limitations at a new location in Kingsville, Missouri. No Limitations will be working with many local companies to enhance their product line.

"We continually strive to stay current with the latest technologies to improve our efficiencies and service," commented Hudson as he noted the company's ongoing investment in software and training.

Heartland Fabrication and Machine, a CNC machine and fabrication shop also offers CNC turning (including y-axis) and milling, drilling, tapping, welding (MIG & TIG), CNC sawing, tube bending and light punching.

Other services such as painting, heat treating, powder coating, plating and robotic welding are also available through a wide range of suppliers.

Heartland Fabrication and Machine serves a wide range of industries in mid-America including: elevator/lift equipment; architectural/ornamental; construction; communications; trucking; railroad; agriculture; lawn and garden; food processing and custom motorcycle components.

The company is a family affair with Mike's wife, Kristi, his mother, Joann Hatch and his Father-in-law, Larry Jones, all involved in the company's operations.
