New Makino S56 CNC Machining Center


Oakford, IN, October 27th, 2009: Hewitt Molding's in-house tool and manufacturing center has also been enhanced with the addition of a new Makino S56, High Speed, Hard Milling, CNC work center. This technology serves as another addition to the current tool department capabilities. The Makino S56 precision and repeatability can virtually eliminate the need for polishing because of the exclusive cutting technology and tooling capability.

George E. Hewitt, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hewitt Molding stated, "In anticipation of a recovering US economy and the overall need for new and advanced medical components during the second half of 2009, it is imperative we continually and proactively upgrade our manufacturing capabilities and quality certifications. We have experienced a greater than anticipated demand from our US markets and believe this is primarily due to the continued increasing cost and quality issues found when doing business overseas. We believe, with our ISO13485 certification and the new machining center, Hewitt Molding is poised at the forefront of the current US medical market needs. We continue to be encouraged with the recovery of US Markets and our current customers continue to show strong inventory utilization and continued growth."
