Precision Machining as a Secondary Process

Enhancing fabrication with comprehensive in-house machining capabilities for complete component solutions

Trak TMC 10 CNC Machining Center

Streamline your manufacturing process with our comprehensive in-house machining capabilities. At Allied Metal Products, we’ve strategically expanded beyond traditional fabrication to provide secondary machining operations that deliver fully finished components from a single source. This integrated approach eliminates the logistics, quality control challenges, and extended lead times associated with using multiple vendors.

Our machining department is anchored by the versatile Trak TMC 10 CNC machining center, complemented by a variety of manual equipment including vertical and horizontal knee mills, lathes, and precision drill presses. This equipment mix gives us the flexibility to handle everything from simple drilling and tapping operations to more complex milling and turning requirements.

By combining our fabrication and machining capabilities, we create a seamless workflow that significantly reduces handling time while maintaining consistent quality standards throughout your project’s lifecycle. Whether you need threaded holes in laser-cut parts, precision-milled features on formed components, or complete machined assemblies, our integrated approach ensures accuracy, consistency, and efficiency.

Equipment Highlights:

  • Trak TMC 10 CNC Machining Center: Programmable precision for repeatable results and complex operations
  • Vertical Knee Mills (2): Versatile capabilities for drilling, boring, and milling operations
  • Horizontal Knee Mill: Specialized configuration for certain machining applications
  • Manual Lathes: Turning capabilities for cylindrical components and features
  • Precision Drill Presses: Accurate hole placement and threading

Capabilities:

  • Secondary operations on fabricated components (drilling, tapping, countersinking)
  • Thread milling for precision internal and external threads
  • Small-run production machining for custom parts
  • Surface finishing and feature adding to welded assemblies
  • Precision boring and reaming for tight-tolerance holes
  • Machining of various materials including steel, stainless steel, and aluminum

Benefits of Integrated Fabrication and Machining:

  • Single-Source Solution: Complete your project with one vendor, one purchase order, and one point of contact
  • Reduced Lead Times: Eliminate transfer time between multiple shops
  • Consistent Quality: Maintain quality control throughout the entire manufacturing process
  • Cost Efficiency: Lower overall project costs by reducing handling, shipping, and administrative overhead
  • Streamlined Communication: Avoid miscommunications that can occur between multiple vendors

Our machining capabilities are ideal for customers who need more than just basic fabrication but don’t require the high-volume production of dedicated machining shops. This middle-ground approach perfectly aligns with our focus on serving the mid-volume manufacturing market.
