Revolutionizing Agricultural Manufacturing with Eagle iNspire Fiber Laser

Pequea Machine’s origins are rooted in Amish workshops in rural Pennsylvania, where the company serves a broad range of agricultural equipment needs.

Today, Pequea manufactures equipment for dairy, beef, produce, vineyards, orchards, and other agricultural applications. This diversity requires a production system capable of responding quickly to changing material requirements and customer demands.

As competition increased and production complexity grew, Pequea recognized that fiber laser technology would be essential for maintaining competitiveness, improving responsiveness, and strengthening internal production control.

“Moving to fiber laser technology was one of those crucial steps forward.” Pequea

Enhanced Efficiency and In-House Control with Eagle

The Eagle fiber laser fundamentally changed Pequea’s production strategy. By bringing laser cutting in-house, the company reduced dependency on outside suppliers while improving production scheduling and responsiveness.

CraneMaster automation became an important component of the solution, reducing manual sheet handling and improving material flow throughout the shop. The ability to cut, bend, and weld most parts internally has strengthened overall operational control.

The company reports a 100% productivity increase and approximately 5% lower cost per part while maintaining flexibility across a wide variety of agricultural equipment applications.
