Manufacture high strength 4130 steel & hold a +/-.003" tolerance, in seven easy steps
This steel component was made for a customer in the manufacturing industry, from high strength 4130 steel.
Many forming techniques created its unique geometry:
1. Laser Cutting
2. Wire EDM
3. Stamping
4. CNC Machining
5. Countersinking
When the dimensions 3.280" in length, 0.800" in width, and 0.215" in thickness were reached, and within + 0.003"/- 0.000" tolerances, the next operation was
6. Etching
Finally, the parts were brought to the required hardness by:
7. Heat Treating
These parts were ready to ship, after visual/dimensional inspections & hardness testing verified the critical quality parameters.
This component demonstrates the care and responsibility brought to every project, large or small.
