Benefits
Precision machine-ready blanks reduce your per part price by eliminating prep time and minimizing setup time, freeing up production time for more jobs.
End Prep Time
- Do not need to be squared like sawed blanks
- Load and Go – no sawing, grinding, flattening, or squaring
Minimize Setup Time
- Reduce or eliminate the number of tool offsets
- Cycle time reduction frees operators and machines for more jobs (or production) without adding labor and investing in more machines
Increase Throughput
- Increase operator and machine throughput levels by eliminating prep time and minimizing setup time
- Frees operators and machines for more jobs (or production) without investing in more machines or additional labor, such as second shifts
- Second operation fixtures eliminated with guaranteed dimensional, flatness, parallelism, and squareness tolerances
Improve Quality
- Eliminate end mill taper
- Ground and/or milled at least two sides at a time versus typical in-house milling operations of one side at a time, ensuring parallelism
Cut Costs
- Cut labor and machining cycle time, typically costing much more than the savings from prepping raw material in-house, reducing per part costs as much as 15% and more
- Cut labor costs by eliminating or reducing the time operators spend adjusting setups and fixture offsets
