TCI Precision Metals Adds Duplex Milling Technology
February 1, 2016
TCI Precision Metals has announced the installation of its newest high tech milling machine. "The Amada, THV430 provides a four-times increase in throughput and will help TCI shorten customer lead time and handle increased demand for its Custom Machine-Ready Blanks," said a company spokesperson.
TCI Machine-Ready Blanks are milled in width and length using the THV430's specially designed twin spindle in one set-up instead of two. This is designed to reduce set-up time and increase efficiency. One or more Machine-Ready Blanks can be produced together, up to the machine's overall dimensional capacity of 16.93" x 16.93" x 5.91".
Custom Machine-Ready Blanks are precision milled to the customer's net specifications and can be furnished as close as +/-.0005" dimensionally and as close as .0002" in flatness, squareness and parallelism. Each Machine-Ready Blank is deburred, cleaned and vacuum. Machine-Ready Blanks are built to eliminate material prep, reduce set-up time, part movement, scrap and wear and tear on machine tool inserts and cutters used to square material in process.
