Meridian Community College (MCC), in Meridian, Mississippi, recently celebrated the opening of its Gene Haas Advanced Manufacturing Center. The all-new CNC learning lab features 9 Haas CNC machine tools and 14 Haas CNC simulators, and is anticipated to be a catalyst for growth throughout the region. A $250,000 grant was awarded to MCC from the Gene Haas Foundation to help fund the lab’s development.
The centerpieces of the CNC lab include a 5-axis Haas UMC-500SS universal machining center, and a multitasking Haas ST-30Y turning center with Y-axis and live tooling. Four additional Haas mills, two additional Haas CNC lathes, a Swiss turn lathe, a Zeiss CMM, and numerous manual lathes, mills, drill presses, and band saws round out the equipment inside the lab for hands-on learning.
