About this listen
In today’s solo episode, Andrew goes deep on the new Matsuura MX installation at Henry Holsters. He answers key questions about why they chose the MX over the MAM series, the tooling strategies they’ve implemented, and how they’re deciding which parts transition from the Brother machines to the new five-axis setup.
He discusses the pros and cons of the MX’s pallet pool design, the transition to Rego-Fix PowerGrip tool holders, and how the investment in high-speed prototyping is paying off. Andrew also opens up about the long and sometimes stressful journey of navigating tax abatements, government paperwork, and the logistics of installing a machine of this scale. Plus, he shares lessons learned, hidden challenges of the installation process, and how they’re maximizing the Matsuura’s production capabilities going forward.
