    Leave a Comment

    The manufacturing and heavy industrial industries involve a number of different specialized fields, some of which provide high quality machining services. At JBC Machine, we are a family owned business that has been producing high quality components since 1985. Our services which we provide in-house include engineering, boring, 3D milling, threading, turning, and drilling operation capabilities.

    Through the use of an extensive range of machine tools and state-of-the-art software, we help ensure our customers receive top-quality results. As mentioned above, we utilize drilling as part of our entire range of services to deliver precision parts on behalf of our customers.

    Let’s look closer at this particular service with regards to its application on lathes and other machines.

    Our Drilling Operation

    Through the use of our 5 axis Mori Seiki turning centers, we turn parts and drill cross holes on either face of a part as well as on or off centers. We retain an extensive selection of carbide, standard HSS, and inserted drills for use on our lathes, in addition to our manual machines and VMCs. The through spindle coolant on our OKK machining centers operate with high pressure, enabling us to use the latest coolant through inserted drills as part of our drilling operations.

    The Added Benefits

    Regardless of your application or project, we are able to employ the right size drill for the job at hand. Once we drill the holes, we are able to tap, bore, or thread mill in accordance with your specifications. We are committed to working with you and spending the time necessary to ensure you receive the end product you need. Our custom machining services, including drilling are applied with extensive attention to detail to meet your precision and specification requirements.

    We offer drilling operation services you can trust to fulfill your exacting requirements. We have your drilling needs covered regardless of the scope of your project through the application of our adept knowledge and experience.

  2. High Precision Custom CNC Metal Machining Services

    Machining is a control process that involves the removal of material from an individual raw material piece into the desired size and shape. The process utilizes various pieces of equipment, including machines, drill presses, and lathes to produce shapes for different kinds of metals. At JBC Machine, we employ a range of different metal machining methods to provide important solutions for our customers.

    Types of Machining

    The machining of hard materials such as higher medium carbon steel is referred to as hard machining. Milling is a classic example of this machining method.

    The process of soft machining involves the machining action that occurs before the treatment is applied. This type of machining was utilized extensively for applications that involve large parts, deep cuts, or materials such as soft steels, brass, or aluminum.

    The process of electrical discharge machining utilizes electrical sparks or discharges to create a desired shape. Through recurring current discharges that occur rapidly between two electrodes, material is removed from a workpiece. This method of metal machining is used effectively for parts that require deep cuts and possess thin features.

    Metal Machining Tools

    There are number of characteristics of metal machining tools that produce high quality and cost effective parts.

    These tools must maintain their hardness and strength at high temperatures. In addition, they must have sufficient toughness characteristics that prevent them from chipping or fracturing during cutting operations. As well, they must provide an acceptably long service life to prevent unnecessary early tool replacement.

    Cutting tools are made from materials that have inherently strong and hard characteristics. Some common materials used for metal machining cutting processes include cemented tungsten carbide, high-speed tool steel, and carbon tool steel.

    Choosing the right cutting tool for the job is something that an experienced CNC machining company understands how to do. The goal is to produce results that are highly precise through the application of a process that is efficient, fast, and also economical for the company itself and the customer.

    At JBC Machine, with more than three decades of experience in the industry, we have the machines on hand to fulfill your machining requirements.
