PPD's Lathe department specializes in high production or prototype hardware ranging from .050" to 18" in diameter.
Over the last 20 years, our experienced machinists have researched and worked with tooling suppliers to ensure we are using the latest technology and ideal speeds and feeds to consistently manufacture close tolerance parts in exotic materials such as Inconel, Waspalloy, A286 and Hastelloy-X.
Re-approaching the way we machine with ceramic inserts is a great example of how we have been able to continue in a high production environment while reducing the cost to the customer.
Prescott Precision 25 turning centers are powered by the latest Esprit and Solidworks CAD/CAM software to ensure we are reducing run times and creating robust programs. All 25 machine centers are in excellent condition and maintained per internal procedures, with half the fleet being new to under 5 years old.
(2)- 5 axis High Horse Power machining centers for the very intricate turn/mill jobs On a 5-axis machining center, the cutting tool moves across the X, Y and Z linear axes as well as rotates on the A and B axes to approach the workpiece from any direction.
(3)- 4 axis High Horse Power machining centers for the very intricate turn/mill parts
(8)- Ultra fast, max precision CNC Lathes for smaller hardware ranging in size from .050 " - 2.000"
(8)- High Horse Power output CNC Lathes for your bigger projects. This platform allows us to specialize in high production turning on materials such as high nickel alloys with ceramic inserts, which in turn increases efficiency and reduces the end cost to the Customer.
(4)- 3 axis max precision high production machine centers with dual spindle CNC Lathes that allow us to make a part complete with the push of one button. A part can be partially machined on the main spindle, moved to the sub-spindle and have additional work done to the other side with this machine configuration.
