## Levelers: for flat and low-stress sheet metal

Begneaud Manufacturing Inc. staffs about 70 employees to provide services from simple welding to a full line of high-tech manufacturing. Headquartered in Lafayette, Louisiana - the sheet metal specialist serves a variety of industries such as; oil, gas, agricultural, aviation, automotive, food processing and many more. 

 

## Problem/challenge:

Continuing to level with a gag press no longer met the needs of the ambitious service company. It was obvious that only a leveler with the ability to level different parts/sheets with various thicknesses, sizes and cuts was needed for processing a much broader range of parts/sheets.

 

„We are now able to accept jobs we couldn't before and we're controlling delivery times better because we have reliable processes that produce quality parts with almost no scrap."

- Don Begneaud, Company founder for Begneaud Manufacturing Inc.

 

## Solution from ARKU:

The [FlatMaster® 55](https://www.arku.com/en-us/levelers/laser-cut-and-punched-parts/flatmaster) precision leveler - It covers a thickness spectrum from 0.6 mm - 15 mm (0.020" - 0.600").

## What the customer says:

"I decided that the ARKU FlatMaster® was the machine for us and so far it's been a dream come true." - Don Begneaud, Company founder
