Yep, that about sums it up for me.  I tend to be pragmatic about most things, but when it comes to the power and resolve of the human spirit, I am highly optimistic.  In our lifetime we have met many challenges head-on and have gotten through them, together.  The current situation is no different, we are seeing people pull together in our communities and throughout our nation, responding to an unseen threat.  There is no doubt we will emerge from this crisis stronger than before, but right now we need to work together to mitigate the effects on our way of life.

At TCI we are together in our resolve to make a difference.  Working closely with you our customers, and the manufacturing community at large we can bring urgently needed products to bear quicker than ever before.  I am sure of it.

By now we are all a couple of weeks into dealing with the new reality of living in this “COVID-19 World.”  It’s a strange time, and I hope everyone has taken time to reflect on the positive things in our lives.  The things we take for granted when all is normal.  For me, I have had more one-to-one time in the evenings and weekends with my wife and kids, which is normally hard to do with the kids’ schedules.  I have had more time to help them with their new home-studies, build Legos, draw pictures and otherwise distract them from asking to play with their friends. I am also impressed and grateful that our employees have continued to remain positive and perform day after day, without skipping a beat.  That’s the TCI way!

Our thoughts and prayers are with those afflicted, who strengthen our resolve to do more.  As a community and as a nation we are always better together.

Thanks for reading –

Support for Public Health and Safety, and Critical Infrastructure

In accordance with Governor Newsom’s executive order, N-33-20, TCI Precision Metals remains open and in full operation to help mitigate the crisis surrounding COVID-19.  The Company will continue to support the needs of national health and safety, and critical infrastructure by providing near net size machine-ready materials designed to reduce the production time of products, including ventilators, durable medical equipment and other essentials.

“As part of our ongoing operations we have implemented a Rapid Response Program, which includes an ‘all-hands’ mandate to prioritize and expedite the production of any and all parts associated with the spirit of the executive order,” said Ben Belzer, President and COO of TCI Precision Metals.  “We are currently producing and shipping machine-ready blanks for critical ventilator and medical testing equipment at a rate of 1,000 parts per day.  But we also know there are other manufacturing companies out there trying to respond quickly to critical needs, and we have additional capacity, which is why we are putting out this communication.”

Precision machine-ready blanks can improve production throughput of a part by as much as 25% by eliminating the need for in-house sawing, grinding, flattening, squaring operations and outside processing.  Each blank arrives deburred, clean and to customer specifications – guaranteed as close as +/- .0005” dimensionally and as close as .0002” flatness, squareness, and parallelism.  By utilizing machine-ready blanks manufacturers realize increased capacity, using the time they previously spent in setup and prep to produce more finished parts, faster.

Founded in 1956, TCI Precision Metals is a family-owned precision manufacturer producing close tolerance machine-ready blanks from aluminum, stainless steel and other alloys. Sawing, Waterjet Cutting, Grinding, Milling and Finishing operations with the added benefit of being a plate and sheet distributor make TCI Precision Metals a one stop materials source for precision machine-ready blanks. The Company also welcomes customer supplied materials.  TCI Precision Metals serves the needs of the medical, oil & gas, aerospace, industrial equipment, defense, food packaging, semiconductor and many other industries.
