Machining

CNC Swiss Screw Machining

• – High-volume turned components manufacturing
• – Well-suited to long parts with tightly controlled turned diameters
• – Live-tooling and subspindles; capable of machining very complex
    parts in single operation
• – Single operation features more accurately placed on part and more
    efficient and cost-effective

CNC Milling

• – Parts machined include any generally rectangular part that could not be efficiently produced by turning
• – Parts machined also include forgings and castings that require post-casting machining of thread and ports
• – Materials milled include brass, aluminum, stainless steel, bronze, and plastics
• – Quantities from a few pieces to thousands of pieces
• – Several of OEP’s VMCs include a 4th axis attachment allowing for machining several faces of a part in one chucking
  

CNC 2-Axis Lathes and Turning

• – Automatic magazine bar feeders allow for around-the-clock operation
• – Quantities for runs range from hundreds to tens of thousands
• – OEP turns parts in wide range of plactics such as Delrin ©, Ultem©,
    PEEK© as well as metals such as aluminum, brass and stainless steel
• – Rapid Prototyping
  
  

Multi-Axis Turning

Wide range of materials and quantities produced; low-prices, high-quality and short lead times

• – Create complex parts by moving multiple complex tools (form tools) in one
    axis
• – Prices are more competitive with larger quantities
• – Some of OEP’s machines are hybrid with elements form both CNC control
    and cam operation–set up and dimensional maintenance are more efficient
