Count On Tools Inc., a provider of precision components and SMT spare parts, is expanding its manufacturing operations at its Gainesville, GA headquarters. The recent expansion is in response to the growing market for SMT nozzles and consumables as well as the increased demand for its precision contract machining services.

According to company representative Zach Shook, COT recently purchased a Haas TL-2 Toolroom Lathe. The new lathe combines the functionality and simplicity of a manual lathe with the power and flexibility of the easy-to-use Haas CNC system. With standard hand wheels and high-accuracy DRO, machinists can start cutting parts in minutes. Additionally, with the Haas Intuitive Programming System, the company can transition quickly and easily into automatic modes and full CNC.

The industries that COT serves count on accuracy of part specifications and on-time delivery of orders. This new machine will help COT achieve both. Additionally, it handles jobs faster by providing COT with increased production speeds and faster processing power on larger parts. 

“This new equipment helps us to produce tight tolerance, precision components quickly and consistently,” said Shook. “As a result, we now can respond to changing customer needs faster and at highly competitive costs.”

As a contract manufacturer, COT and its experienced, knowledgeable management team strives to provide a full line of services to its customers and to continue meeting customers’ demands both now and in the future.
