Challenge: High-efficiency Precision Manufacturing

A leading aerospace company – and long-time client of Abrasive Technology – needed to manufacture a wheel used to grind water pump gears. The company had complete drawings and specs of a wheel that had to be re-sized to work with new materials. Having used our collaborative process before, the team trusted our engineers to move quickly to manufacturing.

Solution: Enhanced Specs and a Proven Process

After our client handed over the spec, Abrasive Technology engineers went to work, prepping the job for manufacturing. Because we have our own engineers and don’t outsource, it was easy to interact directly with the client and tailor the new wheel to their exact needs and environment. The blueprint was finalized in a matter days, and production was complete within a month.

Results: Improved Productivity, Speedy Production and High Quality

Speed, precision and performance matter to our aerospace client – and Abrasive Technology delivered. The solution met tight tolerance and precise compliance standards, and helped improve our client’s final product. The new wheel reduced cycle times and improved productivity by cutting the number of passes required to grind the gears from three to two.

And because the company had confidence in our approach and engineering team, we could deliver this customized solution quickly. Shorter inception-to-delivery cycles are especially important for time-sensitive and risk-averse companies, like our loyal aerospace client.
