Learn More What We Do
Skilled machinists work with campus researchers and external clients to design and fabricate specialized equipment that is not available on the market. MasterCam technology allows shop staff to use CAD programs that run computer-operated mills and lathes to produce completed parts. Skilled welders use solidworks technology and helium leak detectors to provide vacuum welding as well as custom fabricated parts.
