TCI Precision Metals will be introducing Machine-Ready Manifold Blanks at WESTEC, 2015, booth #1315. Shops producing manifolds and other components for the fluid power industry can now eliminate material prep work and reduce overall production time by as much as 25% using Machine-Ready Manifold Blanks. TCI Machine-Ready Manifold Blanks are custom produced to tight tolerances typically to match the outside dimensions of the finish part. This allows shops to get right to the high value aspects of the CNC machining and manufacturing process. With TCI specialized milling and grinding techniques customers can begin the CNC machining process with a Machine-Ready Blank that is dimensionally accurate, deburred, clean and has a superior surface finish. Custom Machine-Ready Manifold Blanks are available in quantities from one to thousands with quick turnaround. Delivering precision tolerances as close as +/- .0005” dimensionally and .0002” flatness, squareness and parallelism with a surface finish of 16 – 25 RMS; TCI Manifold Blanks are Machine-Ready arriving deburred and clean ready to load directly into the customer’s CNC machining center. TCI Precision Metals is no stranger to close tolerance milling and has been providing customers with Precision Machine-Ready Blanks for nearly 60-years. Machine-Ready Manifold Blanks were developed to help manufacturers of fluid power components and systems reduce costs,
