GREEN MACHINING :Our innovations in green machining techniques allow for tooling costs at a fraction of pressed-tooling costs and in most cases- NO TOOLING COSTS.  Dimensions can be held consistently from order to order OR future adjustments can be made without added cost.  Grinding stock is always customer defined as we do not confine the customer to standard oversized blanks.  Flutes, serrations, swirls, countersink holes, etc. are all common operations at our green-machining facility. Rough-molded forms are made at a fraction of the cost of hard-grinding or EDM burning.  Hand-drawn sketches or professional CAD drawings- convert our preformed blanks into your savings of time and money.                        Examples: PROVEN TIMESAVERS
