The precision manufacture of spheres, aspheres, hyperbolas, parabolas, sub-miniature parts, optics and other precision components with mirror-like surfaces requires Super Precision (or Ultra Precision) machining. In addition to experience in programming and fixture design at this micron-level of accuracy, Slabe Machines cutting edge Super/Ultra Precision department utilizes technologically advanced machine tools that have certain characteristics such as: Epoxy or natural granite bases for thermal and mechanical stability Hydrostatic oil bearing box-way linear axes, DC linear motors and high-speed air bearing spindles for vibration dampening, smoothness of rotational motion and dynamic stiffness, High-resolution linear scales and high-speed controllers with advanced drives and error compensation devices for precise axis position feedback.
Most parts for the aerospace and medical industries requires precision parts at the highest quality levels. When manufacturing precision machining mission critical parts, there are often time certain dimensions on them that requires the lathes, grinders and all the machine tools on which parts like this are produced to function a significantly higher level of precision, and using our state-of-the-art precision machining equipment we can comfortably produce virtually any part.
Our machine shop has a bank of Amada/Wasino, Prodigy super precision cnc GT Machines, Hardinges, Omniturn computer numerically controlled machines, etc. These machines are easy to operate and excellent machine tools that machinists can use for both quick setups or job change-overs towards the end of producing high quality finished products at efficient rates. Customer satisfaction, on-time delivery and quality assurance can be kept high and pricing can be kept low using the optimal super-precision machine tool for the job.
We are ISO 9001 Certified and we constantly upgrade our equipment as a part of out robust continuous improvement program.
