Automation Ready Blanks

Ready to go from receiving to automated finish machining

One of the biggest challenges of automated ‘lights out’ machining is repeatable process control. The more variables the automated workflow system must contend with, the greater the room for errors and parts headed for rework or scrap. Using made-to-order precision blanks that are automation-ready is the answer for close-tolerance materials that are consistent part-to-part.
