For a quarter century, Tom Racicot has been a welder. The first 15 years of his career was spent at a welding company, where he learned the ropes and ultimately gained enough expertise that he hit his ceiling. As it turned out, he had just as much passion and talent for hands-on fabrication as he did for welding.

So in 2011, he set off on his own and opened T.R. Welding & Fabrication out of his garage. The Wappingers Falls, NY company welds steel, aluminum and stainless, and it provides custom welding, structural steel, aluminum and mobile welding services. Starting the company was riskier than staying put, but Tom didn’t think twice about it. His talent spoke for itself.

Today, we’re going to tell you how he did it.

E.K. Machine Company started out 50 years ago as a small machine and fabrication shop. Since then, they have grown into a full-service supplier of quality steel components and assemblies to the agriculture, construction, food processing, oil/gas and transportation industries. The company also depends on the finest technology for quality, speed and productivity. That’s where CINCINNATI enters the story.

For decades, CINCINNATI laser cutting machines were built upon the same frame. The architecture suited our CO2 systems well, but the rate at which fiber technology changes made it apparent that we needed a new platform. In February 2019, our team had the first meeting with a blank whiteboard. A mere 8 months later, it’s official: The CLX fiber laser cutter is here.
