Our Largest Investment into 5 Axis Machining

GlenDee/MGI is now committed to the future of 5 axis machining. We are adding our second Matsuura MAM machine. This machine is the MAM72-70V w/18 pallet changer. Our commitment to the technology and the relationship between GlenDee/MGI, Matsuura, and Selway Machine Tool is strong.

With the addition of this machine, our 5 Axis machining volume will increase to 27” diameter x 20” tall. This machine incorporates a 20,000 rpm spindle and has a 330 tool changer. If this fits your need, please submit an RFQ here

Installation and turn up is scheduled for the end of 2020. Once we are running, pictures will follow.

GlenDee/MGI is looking to the future in 5 axis machines and Horizontal Machining Centers that offer vertical stacking pallet systems. Our current systems are being challenged for uptime and productivity.

More Automation Added to Deburr Product

We have successfully added more robotic arms to our deburring department. The addition of a UR-10E with the dual gripper - incorporating both sanding and fixed tool deburring. This continues to reduce our deburring cycle time and increase our productivity. Being able to utilize lights out deburring has allowed us to capture 4 more hours of production each day.

Addition of Laser Machine Manufacturing

After being in the sheet metal fabrication business for the past 45 years, GlenDee/MGI is finally adding additional capability to its sheet metal fabrication. We have continued in the industry utilizing pneumatic punch presses, now is the time to add Laser Manufacturing. We have purchased the Amada FO-3015NT CO2 4KW laser cutting machine.

MGI is upgrading its CMM technology - Hexagon Blue

Hexagon Global Blue

MGI will be receiving our latest Hexagon CMM Global Blue within the next 8 weeks. This machine will be the newest addition to our other machines. Our current technology is approximately 11 years old and we are now looking for speed and agility.

The new machine has the newest in interactive technology allowing this machine to run 20 hours per day. We will be implementing robot loading and running.

MGI is making advances in Quality Control with Articulating Arms

Hexagon Absolute Arm (7 Axis device)

MGI has placed its first order for the Hexagon Absolute Arm (portable cmm). We have purchased two arms to facilitate more inspection at the in-process stages of manufacturing. After several meetings and demos, we feel this product will greatly increase the speed of our inspection and increase the frequency.

It is our intent to deploy this to the operator level on the floor and allow each person to become technical with the arms

This product will be deployed across two of our facilities
