The depth of knowledge that our team has gives us the upper hand to our competitors. We have several employees that have worked at foundries. That experience brings awareness to the urgency foundries face every day. Our staff is well-educated and up-to-date in their knowledge of CNC machines, hardware and software that allow us to cater to our customers' needs. We strive for excellence on every job we take and to us, "on-time delivery" means just that. If we promise it, we deliver no matter what the cost.

We work very closely with our customers tooling managers and project engineers. Our background in and ability to perform GoToMeeting events on the fly keeps all projects moving forward to meet customer needs. We are able to "red-flag" areas of concern, and not just build tooling but give customers suggestions or help audit designs. This interaction has been noticed by our current customers, and lets us be more collaborative in providing tooling.

A few examples:

We machined a 100% CNC-machined match plate where the raw material weighed 1500 pounds when we started, and after completion only weighed 150 pounds. This tooling, because of its highly complicated offset parting of the pattern, was the best practice that we have come up with to get our customer the best tool possible. The machine tolerance of the pattern to the current 3D model and match of the geometry was within .0035 inches.
We have provided 100% CNC machined tooling to our customers within a week to meet their customer's needs for rapid prototype tooling.

We put inventory software in place several years ago, and it has paid off tenfold. It gives us the confidence in knowing that our material needs are met every day. When we go to the drawer for end mills and inserts to cut tooling, we are confident we have these supplies in stock to meet our customers' needs on-time, every time.
