Tetakawi, the leading provider of shelter services for foreign manufacturers in Mexico, is pleased to welcome CMI Group Aerospace and Defense to the Roca Fuerte Manufacturing Community in Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico.
Since 1972, Phoenix, Ariz.-based CMI Group has delivered quality machined and assembled components to the aerospace and commercial industries. The company serves global aerospace brands with the production of thousands of part types and an emphasis on solid customer relationships. This expansion brings CMI’s capabilities to the center of one of Mexico’s most robust aerospace manufacturing clusters. CMI expects to hire 70 employees in Guaymas, Sonora – including CNC operators, inspectors, engineers, and technicians – with plans to grow to 200 employees by 2024.
The new 43,500-square-foot facility features wide-ranging CNC machining capabilities, with in-house 3- and 4-axis mills, Swiss lathes, and 2- and 3-plus-axis CNC lathes. The company is also expanding its super-precision grinding, deburring, honing, lapping, and assembly capabilities. As the new facility ramps up operation, CMI plans to launch a technical center dedicated to developing innovative new methods for serving its aerospace customers.
