Have you ever wondered if there's a better way to build, protect, and repair? Or if there's a more cost-effective way to keep operations going? There are many instances of parts being scrapped and replaced because there's no suitable or timely or cost-effective way to repair them. Or, they've been repaired with welding and end up cracked or annealed. There are also instances where a crucial part must be replaced unexpectedly, then it may take months to be replaced. Large-scale tooling and moulding, for example, can often take more than a year to produce. But, there's a simple, novel solution to repair and maintain these critical assets. Cold spray can do just that. A versatile, no heat method to repair, resurface, maintain, or create critical assets with rapid turnaround. #RepairDontReplace #ColdSpray #AdvancedManufacturing

This is a 1,200-ton Prince die cast machine. We machined both platens to minimum clean up along with the cold chamber pocket. This machine is unique since it had the wear plates on it. Unfortunately, the throat on the t-slots for the platen was removed and in order to use the t-slots, you have to have the plates attached. Over time the center (load area) of each platen will have broken bolts and the plates begin to flex and breath. Unless this maintenance is kept up with, you'll not only end up with the same problem but more of a problem because you not only have to machine the platens but 2 more surfaces. Everyone is busy and this is easy to overlook. This customer didn't have the time to order the costly new plates so they had the old ones ground. We removed around .055" on the stationary platen and .045" on the movable. If you have these plates either replace all bolts in the center area annually (minimally) or weld it up with Nickel and you're set. #machining #manufacturing #machinery #engineering #maintenance #jobshop #portablemachining #onsitemachining #automotive #fieldmachining #leanmanufacturing #industrialengineering #machinetool #repair #diecast #diecasting #milling #plasticinjectionmolding #plasticinjection #equipment #efficiency #automotiveindustry

The stamping scraps of the moulds are the set of all the residues of the working of our products. When we apply a mold to a sheet, a part of being is automatically discarded creating scrap. But why is the evacuation of scraps so important? This simple action guarantees the quality and efficiency of the entire production, because if they were not properly evacuated they could cause breakages in the parts of the mold or even damage the press used for production. The correct evacuation guarantees a long mould hard life, the possibility of high production, maximum production output but above all the reduction of the mould maintenance costs. Did you know that? Write it below in the comments. #prodottiebi #coldforming #coldshaping #colddeformation #shaping #savingenergy #metalcomponents #workingmetal #progressivemold #scapsevacuation

What's one of the most critical steps fabrication and machine shops can take to ensure our finishing processes go smoothly? Don't hesitate to ask your own customers questions. If something in the blueprint isn't quite right, following up with your customers' engineers early in the process is much easier than chasing them down once you've already started machining or sent the parts for finishing. Keeping an open line of communication can reduce delays and ensure accuracy from the moment you begin your processes to the time we finish ours.
