This part is a good example of a combination of precision turning and 4th axis
CNC Milling. Turned on both ends with the internal bore
held to a tolerance of +/-.0002. Using a rotary milling
fixturethe part is milled, drilled and tapped
in one operation. The rotary process ensures that the true position of all
features is properly maintained well within prescribed tolerances. |

This cover is a good example of our CNC Milling capabilities. A solid model
was created in Solid Works from the customer drawing. The part
was programmed using CAMWorks and its automatic feature recognition
technology. It was verified using computer simulation on the solid model and sent
directly to one of our FANUC Robodrill Millers for quick and accurate
creation of the cover. |

This gear housing demonstrates a mix of CNC turning, CNC Milling, 4th Axis
Rotary Milling and outside processing. Proper alignment between the gear
teeth and the part features is paramount. This was accomplished by designing
the machining process and tooling in close coordination with the gear hobbing
vendor. We were able to create a tooling hole for the gear hobbing vendor
which we subsequently removed in later machining operations. The finished
product fit seamlessly into the customer's end product.

This small part made of vespel, a costly raw material, takes only five
operations to machine to completion. In the process design we were able to
create many of the features in our rotary milling operations and make this
part from the leftover material of it's mating part. The finished product not
only met, it exceeded, customer specifications at considerably less cost.

One of the front line capabilities at Dalton Mfg Co is CNC turning. We
routinely turn castings and solid shapes with bearing bores held to tolerances
of +/- .0002 of an inch. These parts are 100% inspected at the machine using
a combination of precision gage pins and a Sunnen Bore G Gage. Our consistent
high quality levels have won us the highest confidence of our customers and the
ability with many to provide parts on a "ship to stock" basis.
