This news flashed across my desk this week and, needless to say, grabbed my attention. Upon further investigation, the news seems to be quite true.

Michigan-based Merrill Technologies Group (MTG), a family owned manufacturer, has joined forces with Fadal Engineering to launch a new Fadal CNC full range product line. These are new machine tools from the leveling screws up, the company says, including the option using BIG Plus tooling on the spindle.

The new Fadal will manufacture in California and Michigan with plans to sell globally through a distributor network. The company will launch its new VMC, called the Classic Series, at this year’s IMTS. It can be seen in the Ingersoll Cutting Tools booth, W-1822.

Plans call for a continuous roll out of new models targeted at various markets through 2014 and into 2015. It’s an ambitious plan that will include the Performance Series with a CAT- 50 taper spindle, and the Heavy Series which will include large machining and turning centers targeting energy, off-road, aerospace and defense markets, the company says.
