+ JFY:
FORGING PARTNERSHIPS TO FUTURE PROFITABILITY
WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOUR
ENGINEERING BUSINESS HAS
BEEN AROUND 40 YEARS
BUT WANT TO ENSURE
THAT YOU’RE AROUND FOR
ANOTHER 40 TO COME? YOU
ANALYSE YOUR BUSINESS
INFRASTRUCTURE AND
THEN YOU INVEST IN THAT
FUTURE.
Formed in 1976, that’s exactly the position
Auckland-based Stainless Engineering found
themselves in. The company’s managing
director Leanne Morris, along with key staff,
looked at what they needed to future-proof
the company and improve upon current
capabilities.
Enter JFY and a new TFC-3015S (3kW) CNC
laser cutting machine.
The unit was installed in October last
year and features a Trumpf TruDisk laser
generator, good stability and high cutting
speed, high-efficiency anti-reflection
function and the ability to cut high-reflection
material.
Add to that a positioning speed of 169 m/
min - due to a direct servo motor with high
torque - and acceleration of up to 2g through
adaptive lightweight structure. Ease of use
is ticked off too thanks to a detailed cutting
database system.

have assisted immensely in the set up of the
unit and also in helping the operator get the
