We provide solutions for "problem" parts that have been declined by most of our competitors. Parts are generally small and intricate, and have some feature(s) that pose a problem for traditional grinding processes.
Industries we serve:
Medical – micro-sized parts for implants
Aerospace – intricate valve spool applications
Injection Molding – miniature core pins Fuel Injection – fuel injector needles Bearing – thin wall, tight concentricity, ball tracks Other High-Tech Industries – motor shafts, air bearing spindles, race engine parts
Special features and capabilities include:
Extremely intricate forms can be CNC dressed into the grinding wheel or interpolated by the wheel; tapers, radii, multiple diameters, etc... CNC OD and CNC ID Grinding Concentricity OD/OD or OD/ID to .00002" (.5 micron) Diameter tolerances to +/-.00005" (1.2 micron) Diameter range: OD - .003" to 2.50", ID - .100" to 2" Very small parts (OD’s) – small diameter and short overall length Pure radius and "Gothic Arch" ball tracks of specialty bearing races to ABEC 9 classification Finishes to 2 Ra (.05 micron) All materials – including glass, carbide, M2, Tungsten, Titanium, Nitinol, etc...Very small parts can be very big problems – we love a good challenge!
