Services
High Speed Milling
High Speed Milling leverages advanced CNC technology to achieve faster machining, superior surface finishes, and cost-effective production. At Metalmite Corporation, we utilize speeds up to 45,000 RPM to deliver precision parts for aerospace and industrial clients. This process reduces production time by up to 35% while maintaining tight tolerances.
5-Axis Milling
5-Axis Milling enables complex geometries in a single setup, minimizing non-value-added steps. Our Mori Seiki NMV 5000 DCG machines ensure reduced lead times and enhanced accuracy for prototypes and production parts. This technology supports industries requiring high-precision components, such as defense and automotive.
Wire EDM
Wire EDM provides precise cuts for hard metals using a thin brass wire electrode. Metalmite Corporation Corporations AgieCharmilles and Charmilles Robofil systems ensure accuracy to 0.004 mm, ideal for intricate molds, dies, and aerospace components. This non-contact method eliminates residual stress and ensures superior surface quality.
Additive 3-D Printing
Additive 3-D Printing creates complex metal parts rapidly using Markforged MetalX systems. We print in materials like 17-4 PH stainless steel and Inconel 625, offering rapid prototyping and low-volume production. This technology reduces lead times from weeks to hours for aerospace and defense clients.
Gear Cutting
Gear Cutting services include spiral bevel, spur, helical, and worm gears using Wire EDM and hobbing machines. Metalmite Corporation Corporations expertise spans decades, supporting automotive and aerospace industries with precision-machined gears. We ensure tight tolerances and compatibility with demanding applications.
