BLM GROUP USA has announced the successful commissioning of its LC5 Combination Tube and Sheet Laser by Fast Trak Metal Fabrication (FTMF).

The contract manufacturer, located in Fresno, CA, doubled its footprint to 52,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing space and has reduced processing time by 50% with the new 10 kW hybrid machine compared to its existing 4 kW CO2 machines. FTMF now has the capacity to cut tube, pipe and plate up to 1-1/8" for steel, 1-1/2" for stainless steel and 1-3/8" aluminum and has expanded its customer base with tube laser service to the automotive aftermarket and agriculture industries.

"We are always excited to be a part of our customers' success by providing a solution that can help them improve their processes and productivity," said Misgana Mulat, National Sales Manager with BLM GROUP USA. "FTMF is the perfect example of a company reaping the benefits of powerful laser cutting technology."

"Our team is ready to put the new tube/sheet laser machine to work as we continue to expand our customer base," added Ferol Garcia, owner and CEO of FTMF. "This machine is one of the main reasons we doubled the square footage of our facility. The outlook for our business is optimistic in 2025, and we look forward to contributing more to the local economy through our expanded services with our new BLM GROUP machine."

In addition to gaining increased cutting capacity, FTMF can process high volume flat sheet laser cutting projects more efficiently with the addition of automatic material loader/unloader.

The LC5 Combination Tube and Sheet Laser offers immediate switchover from tube to sheet without the need to reconfigure the machine and can effectively process multiple material types and thicknesses.
