Large Capacity Machines
At Method Mfg, our specialty is large precision parts, whether that's aerostructures for satellite buses or plate work for automation systems. The complexity and size of a large part require specialized equipment and expertise, and that's where we excel.
Consider the challenge of maintaining tolerances as tight as ±0.005 or tighter across a part spanning 30” or more. Factors like machine accuracy, ambient and coolant temperatures, and spindle growth can significantly influence the outcome.
To address these variables:
Our largest machine incorporates glass-scales to guarantee absolute positioning, reducing inaccuracies.
Our climate-controlled environment stabilizes conditions,
Our coolant is chilled, regulating the temperature for consistent machining.
Our largest 49 hp spindle, capable of reaching 20,000 rpm, is both chilled and temperature-controlled. This minimizes spindle growth, a phenomenon where spindles lengthen as they heat up.
With these features in place, we're primed to produce large, precision-crafted parts with utmost accuracy.
We are fully licensed and registered for all your manufacturing needs.
Our clients love us, and we think you will, too.
