Challenges/Innovation

Duplex 2205 is a very hard material and difficult to machine a lot of research and development has gone into working out the perfect processes and tools to machine these parts efficiently.
Correct tooling, machine parameters and coolant is critical to this job.
Waterjet cutting is used to cut the external profile of the components to give us accuracy and speed up manufacture.
Custom jaws made for holding parts while machining.
Streamlining of manufacture was achieved by utilising multiple machining capabilities and machines to maximise efficiency of each process while reducing costs on tolling wear, this outweighed all processes being done on one machine for these components due to the material grade.
