General Info

Aerospace Fabrications of Georgia, Inc 305 Butler Industrial Drive, GA 30132 Dallas About The Shop AFG was incorporated in 1993, the year fresh-out-of-college owner Adam Grizzle first laid hands on CNC equipment and CAD/CAM software in a business environment. Seven years later, in October 2000, AFG became a Bronze Level Certified Supplier to Boeing, placing the company among the top 700 of more than 16, 000 Boeing suppliers. The shop's start came when a family member loaned Mr. Grizzle the money for his first CNC machine, a used Moog knee mill. Soon the company added another used CNC machine and two very good customers: McCann Aerospace Machining in Atlanta (now AFG 's largest and friendliest competitor) and Aerocell Structures. A breakthrough for AFG came in 1995. Buyers at Boeing were aware the shop had been subcontracting for McCann, a Boeing supplier. The aerospace giant decided to give AFG the chance to become a direct supplier. Three years later, AFG had the largest part number base of all southeastern Boeing suppliers. Also in 1995, the shop added a new CNC machining center, a model VF-4 machine from Haas Automation (Oxnard, California). Today the shop has eight three-axis mills, all but one of them from Haas. In 1999, the shop purchased a five-axis machining center from the same company, as well as a waterjet machine from Flow International (Kent, Washington). All of these machines are programmed using Mastercam from CNC Software (Tolland, Connecticut). AFG used this same software to model the first part it aggressively pursued following the purchase of its five-axis machine, an aluminum window frame for the U.S. Air Force /Boeing C-17 cargo plane.
