Baker Engineering has added two state-of-the-art swiss-style CNC turning centers to its expanding machine shop.  The new Citizens A32 and A20 lathes give BEI added capabilities in producing small precision parts with tolerances within .0002,  with up to 7-axis turning on stock 1.25” diameter or less and 5-axis turning on stock greater than 1.25” diameter. The machines are set up for short runs or higher volumes.  Let BEI quote your next part!

Baker Engineering is proud of our ongoing ISO 9001:2008 Registration, which was again recertified in December 2015. In support of our expanding manufacturing capabilities and with a deep committment to quality, the BEI crew works hard at documenting our internal processes and systems to meet or exceed the published standards of the International Standards Organization (ISO) and the expectations of our customers.  

Thank you each of our new customers!  Baker designed/manufactured parts can now be found in hospital beds, machine tooling, office furniture, automobiles and race cars.  From simple clips to complex cylinders, the BEI team can design, manufacture and test it!

BEI’s proprietary 24 cu.in. Opposed-Piston Turbo Diesel Engine/APU has successfully demonstrated cold start, low idle, high idle and incremental loads nearing the target power output.  See it run at http://youtu.be/WJvEYzIgGYI. With a target of 20kW output, this technology has widespread potential due to its small size, flexible footprint, power-to-weight ratio, low part count, and fuel efficiency.  The single cylinder engine also provides a low compression ratio with low heat rejection, variable boost, high speed, good cold starting and multi-fuel capabilities.

Two engines currently under development at BEI were featured at the AUVSI Unmanned Systems show in Las Vegas in August.  The revolutionary Nutating Disk Engine was displayed in two configurations, the 100+ Hp version as well as the 7 Hp engine. Rotary engine advancements underway at BEI were also featured.  These technologies were part of the Air Force Research Laboratory exhibit for the third consecutive year. For additional information, click the Technologies tab at the top of the page.
