Mears Machine Corporation (Indianapolis, IN) is delighted to announce that it has contracted Seco Tools to develop a 'state-of-the-art cutting tool solution and methodology for Industrial and Aerospace Impellers.'

CEO James Lloyd commented "At Mears Machine we have a proud history of making quality aerospace impellers, but we recognize that to be competitive today and in the future, we required new 'platform agnostic solutions. The collaboration with Seco has already started with initial machining operations on both steel and titanium impellers underway and I am very excited with the initial results. Combined with our ability to produce additive impellers in both Inco 718 and Haynes 282, we feel that we are in a great position to serve critical Aerospace, Defense and Industrial markets."
