Core Component Services can guide the design of near net shapes which eliminate or greatly reduce downstream secondary operations such as machining and component assembly.
Design experienced in:
Castings: Die, Permanent Mold, Investment, Sand, Shell Mold & Centrifugal
Powder Metallurgy
Powdered Metal Parts provide high repeatability and supreme abrasion resistance with moderate tooling costs. Tight tolerance parts are available in ferrous and non ferrous metals and can be impregnated with resins or lubricants to provide exceptional functionality in mechanical applications.
Typical applications can be found in transmissions and gearboxes while the exceptional finish and strength of powdered metal components makes this process an great choice for the manufacturing of hardware items.
Low cost tooling and part prices will provide cost reductions over alternative manufacturing techniques such as machining, investment castings and metal injection molding.
Extrusions: Aluminum, Titanium, Ferrous & Non-Ferrous
Complex shapes are common for the extrusion process with low tooling costs and medium quantity requirements. Frequent part revisions and technology updates make this process a great choice on new product launches with short lead times and low initial quantities.
Typical applications for extrusions involve electronic boxes, rails, frames and asymmetric tubular shapes. Forward logic in the design phase can eliminate fasteners, secondary processes and allow for combination parts to reduce assembly costs.
The process is very friendly to cosmetic finishes, etching and index tabbing.
Materials: Ferrous, Non-ferrous, Aluminum & Nickel Alloys
