Challenge: material traceability
An important factor of this manufacturing project is material traceability. It is important for the customer to know where the used materials are coming from. That is why the origin of the metal used is tracked and certified.
Regarding the manufacturing process itself, the main challenge is precision. For the product to function as intended, it is vital to prevent any burrs.
Result: precision manufacturing
This product is made of stainless steel with CNC turning. The product will be in contact with water. Therefore the steel must be corrosion-resistant.
Manufactured according to ISO-2768-m the cylindrical component meets all the customers' needs and requirements.
It is important for the functionality of the product to have a perfect surface. That is why a key process is to check for any burrs and other inconsistencies in the metal.
About the customer
This customer is on a mission: to upgrade H2S management in various industries.
The company manufactures and delivers equipment for measuring water, air, oil, and gas. To stay competitive and deliver accurate measurements to clients, the customer sets high standards for quality, reliability, and precision.
CNC turning – what is it?
CNC turning is a manufacturing process that involves the machining of cylindrical workpieces using computer numerical control (CNC).
In this process, a lathe machine rotates the workpiece while a cutting tool removes material to achieve the desired shape. The CNC aspect allows high levels of accuracy and repeatability in manufacturing.
CNC turning is commonly used to create cylindrical components, such as shafts and bolts. This machining method offers efficient production, reduced human error, and the ability to work with various materials.
