Sheet laser cutting – features that optimize performance!
Apr 12, 2021 12:38:55 PM
When one thinks of BLM GROUP’s laser machines, one immediately thinks of Lasertube systems.
It is quite natural that BLM GROUP is firmly associated to laser tube cutting as the technology was invented, developed and brought to the current level of reliable high productivity systems, by BLM GROUP.
This spectacular success in the tube sector sometimes makes people forget that BLM GROUP has been manufacturing laser sheet cutting systems for the past 30 years.

How helping a friend turned into a pioneering business
Jul 21, 2020 9:30:00 AM
“I didn’t know anything about having my own company,” begins Cullen Raichart, Founder & CEO of GreenBroz, an emerging agricultural machine manufacturer. He continues, “I was a Chief Engineer at a Fortune 500 company and didn’t have real knowledge about building a company. I’ve always been an inventor, always someone who tinkered with stuff, and always could fix things.”
