Students in the DigiFAB Seminar at the UHCoA toured the fabrication shop at AMBOX, Limited.  They have extensive stamping and forming capabilities shown here.  One product is the Kevlar helmets worn by the US military.  They can produce 70 per day and have made over 100,000 of them since production began.  Their 4000W CNC laser will cut the components for the New Harmony Grotto project later this month.
