Process
TAKE ORDER
During the order process obtain as much information possible from customers regarding their specific product needs. Detailed specification drawings are used to come up with the best possible solution for the required process. The drawings and precise measurements are than passed onto the manufacturing for processing.
BUY RAW MATERIALS
Depending on the customer requirement, the best possible raw materials and scrap is sourced from one of our trusted suppliers. Once the scrap arrives it is checked to make certain there are no quality issues and it is to the top most quality available.
MELTING THE SCRAP IN THE FOUNDRY
Melting of the scrap is performed in a furnace. The process of melting the scrap is a vital stage in the process, during this stage the metal chemistry needs to be adjusted according to the intended final use of the product. Our manufacturing team are well trained in this area of the process to make these alterations.
TURNING / MACHINING
This is the final stage of the process it usually involves grinding, sanding, or machining the component in order to achieve the desired dimensional accuracies, physical shape and surface finish required by the customer.
QUALITY CHECK
During the production, brass is subject to constant evaluation and control of the materials and processes used to form specific brass stock. The chemical compositions of the raw materials are checked and adjusted before melting. The heating and cooling times and temperatures are specified and monitored. The thickness is measured at each step. Finally the, the finished products are tested for hardness, strength, dimensions, and other factors to ensure they meet the required specifications.
