YORKVILLE — Meyda Custom Lighting recently announced it has acquired and installed what it says is new “state-of-the-art” manufacturing equipment to expand its custom-lighting capabilities.
A laser-cutting machine provides a new platform and production tool that reduces cycle time and speeds up processes, the business said in a news release.
Using high-power CNC technology, the “high-tech laser” can cut a range of thin, medium, and thick gauge metals including copper, brass, steel, and aluminum. Its capabilities include cutting grids, straight lines, and contours, as well as piercing metals, resulting in custom-crafted metal cutouts, components, decorative accents and filigree, as well as a broad array of new designs, the company said. The finished metals are used as decorative accents, scrollwork, and components for custom-lighting fixtures, from the diminutive to grand-scale masterworks.

Meyda said the new equipment and technologies will “help fulfill custom orders on interior and exterior specification-based lighting for residential, hospitality, and commercial projects.” Meyda employees form metals into a variety of shapes, sizes, and styles used for chandeliers, wall sconces, pendants, lamps, and other luminaires.
The company didn’t disclose how much it spent on the new equipment, but told CNYBJ that it was “company funded, without any state or federal assistance, incentives, grants, or low-interest loans.”
In addition to custom lighting fabrication, Meyda offers contract metal-cutting capabilities to meet the production needs of various types of manufacturers that build their products in the U.S.
Meyda Custom Lighting currently has 65 employees, and the company says it’s looking to hire more mechanical engineers and 3-D draftspersons. The business is headquartered at 55 Oriskany Blvd. in Yorkville.
