Services
CNC Laser Cutting
Haake Mfg provides high-precision CNC laser cutting for steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and copper. Our 8000-watt fiber and CO2 lasers deliver clean edges, tight tolerances, and complex profiles. This cost-effective solution minimizes heat-affected zones while maximizing speed and accuracy for diverse industrial applications.
Powder Coating
Our advanced powder coating system uses Gema applicators and GAT finishing technology for uniform, durable finishes. Capable of rapid color changes and continuous coating, this eco-friendly process ensures consistent film thickness, eliminates defects like orange peel, and meets strict customer specifications for industrial parts.
Robotic Welding
Haakes robotic MIG welding systems handle steel, stainless steel, and aluminum with precision. Using OTC Daihen and Lincoln Electric equipment, our automated cells enable high-volume production runs while maintaining quality through real-time monitoring and repeatable processes for medium-to-large scale orders.
Metal Stamping
Our metal stamping capabilities include progressive and single-station tooling with AIDA presses up to 160 tons. Equipped with servo feeds and tonnage monitors, this process ensures precision for complex parts while maintaining quality through LINK controls and die sensors across multiple press brands.
CNC Press Brake Forming
Using advanced CNC press brakes with 6-axis back gauges, we achieve precise forming for diverse applications. Electric brakes enhance speed and cost-efficiency, while automated systems ensure dimensional accuracy and flexibility for custom sheet metal components.
