Stevenson Company Enhances Fabrication Capabilities with New Fiber Laser Addition
Stevenson Company, the premier name in stainless steel fabrication, is excited to announce the addition of a state-of-the-art fiber laser to its fabrication facility, in collaboration with Go Topeka, the economic development arm of the Topeka and Shawnee County community. Installed earlier this year, this advanced technology enhances Stevenson Company’s production capabilities and reinforces Topeka’s position as a hub for innovative manufacturing.
The new fiber laser, which was purpose-built by Amada America, offers enhanced precision, speed, and versatility, allowing Stevenson Company to process stainless steel with unparalleled accuracy. With this addition, the facility can now handle increased demand, reduce turnaround times, and maintain the superior quality standards that have defined the company’s reputation for over 75 years.
The fiber laser’s capabilities include high-speed cutting, reduced material waste, and the ability to work with both thin and thick metal. This addition complements Stevenson Company’s existing suite of equipment and employee skillset, further solidifying its position as a trusted partner in the food and pharma industries.
“We’re proud to support Stevenson Company’s growth, which strengthens Topeka’s manufacturing landscape,” said Molly Howey, President of Go Topeka. “This partnership reflects our commitment to fostering innovation and economic vitality in our community.”
Go Topeka’s support for this expansion aligns with its mission to foster economic development and job creation in Shawnee County. The organization has a proven track record of partnering with local manufacturers. Stevenson Company’s new fiber laser is expected to contribute to the local economy by enhancing production capacity and potentially creating new jobs. The company plans to leverage this technology to explore new opportunities and continue its growth trajectory in the food and pharma manufacturing landscape.
