The ultimate machinery and moulding shop
Precision machining is a type of technical manufacturing processs that removes excess, raw material from a work-piece to create a finished product within a close tolerance finish. The precision machining process is performed on a Computer Numerical Control (CNC) equipment and involves various process such as cutting, milling, turning etc on a variety of materials such as steel, bronze, glass, plastics and other metals.
CNC sliding head machines, also known as Swiss Auto Machines, were originally designed for machining small high-precision watch parts and components. These days these machines are used across a wide range of industry sectors such as automotive, medical etc.. The technology involves a bar being fed through the machine’s headstock and being gripped by a collet. The cutting tools in a sliding head machine are positioned very close to the workpiece which reduces non-cutting 'idle' time, while the sub-spindle allows operations to be 'overlapped' to further reduce cycle time.
Plastics parts are commonly manufactured by injection moulding fabrication process.
In this technique, the plastic is melted in the moulding machine and then injected into the mould, where it cools and solidifies into the final part. The technique is used in a variety of products including household appliances, consumer electronics, power tools, and as automotive dashboards. In addition, many medical devices including valves and syringes, are manufactured using injection moulding process.
