At the same time, the mechanical contractor has expanded its sheet metal and miscellaneous metal fabrication operations considerably, too—from roughly 3,000 square feet to nearly 24,000 square feet.

A machine called the “RoboCraftsman” will soon be at work at the University of Dayton, where researchers and engineers are making sure the California-produced, AI-driven tool can produce sheet metal ...

The expansion takes aerospace manufacturing procurement a step further by streamlining the sourcing of metal parts for aerospace, including precision sheet metal parts for aerospace applications.
