In business since 1969, C&A Tool Engineering Inc. is a contract manufacturer of engineered components. The company makes implants, instrumentation and tools for the medical, aeronautical, defense, transportation and other industries at its 700,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Churubusco, IN.
For many years, one of C&A’s toughest challenges was to produce high-quality, metal prototype parts cost-effectively. This changed in 2008 when the company began using an EOSINT M 270 direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) machine from EOS GmbH Electro Optical Systems.
