For over 50 years, Blackhawk Engineering has been a trusted name in CNC manufacturing and has provided solutions for industries like agriculture and energy.
Embracing Technology
At the heart of Blackhawk Manufacturing’s success is our ability to us the latest advancements in CNC technology. We operate equipment that includes Mazak FMS 5-axis machining centers, horizontal and vertical lathes, and inspection tools like coordinate measuring machines (CMMs). Because of these tools, we can handle parts of varying sizes, from small components with intricate designs to large parts weighing up to 2000 pounds.
Blackhawk’s also has a flexible manufacturing system (FMS), which includes a 38-pallet rail-guided vehicle system. This system can produce around the clock to reduce downtime and increase organization.
Automation
Automation is another thing Blackhawk Manufacturing focuses on. We have installed systems–drum cell robots and tool changers–to organize production processes. This increases productivity and reduces the possibility of human error.
For example, Blackhawk’s Mazak FMS can handle complex machining tasks with minimal human intervention. This lets us take on large-scale projects and maintain tight tolerances and deadlines.
Investing in Workforce Development
While technology and automation are important, Blackhawk Engineering places the most importance on workforce. We do everything we can to create a positive work environment where employees can thrive. We have training programs and educational opportunities to make sure our team members have the skills needed to work with new machinery and processes.
