LAI International, Inc. (Scottsdale, AZ), a strategic supplier of precision components and sub-assemblies for original equipment manufacturers, announced it has completed major equipment upgrades at its facility in Phoenix.
The facility completed installation of new high-speed waterjet machining workstations that handle large metal sheet sizes, increasing the number of cutting heads by four times. Intensifier units have been installed to increase capacity for high-pressure waterjet machining.
