Precision Machining
Precision machining is an umbrella term for the manufacturing processes used to produce components with extremely tight tolerances. During this process, we remove layers of material from a raw workpiece to accurately produce a physical part based on a design.
Advantages
There are a number of advantages to employing precision machining for part production, including:
- Higher precision and tighter tolerances. Some applications require adherence to extremely tight tolerances, which can be difficult or impossible to achieve with common machining techniques. Precision machining makes these sorts of projects possible.
- Minimal production error. By employing highly skilled technicians with years of experience, Durco ensures there are no miscalculations or faults in the finished product.
- Less material waste. Our high-quality standards lower the risk of error and reduce the amount of potential material waste due to flawed part or product production.
- Greater consistency. Because production demands are often very similar, our precision machining team can produce thousands of replicas with a consistent level of precision.
- Reduced turnaround and production time. The repetitive nature of precision machining equipment allows for accurate production at faster speeds. This process quality reduces the turnaround time required for a project, allowing manufacturers to fulfill more customer requests.
- Easier prototype production. The faster production time afforded also lends itself to prototype production. When designing and developing a part or product, the ability to produce a full-scale, functional prototype facilitates progression through the manufacturing process.
Common Industrial Applications
Precision machining is of value to any industry where precision is of the utmost importance, including aerospace, medical, electronics, and firearms.
Some specific industrial components that we can produce include:
- Barbs
- Electrical connectors
- Fasteners
- Flow valves
- Gears
- Screws
- Specialty fittings
- Valves
- Washers
