GFW Technologies Inc. | Precision Machining & Fabrication
Overview:
GFW Technologies Inc., a precision CNC machine and fabrication facility, stands out for its unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction, quality, and timely delivery. As a long-standing client of MitoGraphics, they have consistently brought unique projects to our table. Their latest challenge was no different: they needed permanent identification markings on high-precision check fixture gauges, custom-designed for a top-tier European electronics firm.
Challenges:
The project was riddled with complexities:
- The compact dimensions of the gauges.
- Their distinct physical contours.
- The specialized plating involved.
- The uncompromising precision standards.
Moreover, the necessity to image at the base of the cylindrical barrels intensified the intricacy of the task.
Review the MitoGraphics Process
Solution:
Harnessing our expertise, we designed specialized fixtures right within our facility. The next step was to employ a technique that thermally fused a ceramic marking to the plated surface. This ceramic imprint, once set into the plated surface at a blistering 1100 Celsius, stands out for its remarkable thinness and unparalleled durability. With this method in our arsenal, MitoGraphics is equipped to etch permanent markings on a wide spectrum of metals and plated surfaces, achieving detail resolutions up to 0.005".
Conclusion:
Post our intervention, GFW Technologies has successfully rolled out multiple batches of these meticulously crafted gauges. Our custom-designed fixturing ensured that these orders were processed and dispatched with remarkable efficiency.
At MitoGraphics, we pride ourselves on our versatility, marking an array of client-provided components through diverse techniques such as screen printing, digital UV, dye-sublimation, laser, and other state-of-the-art marking processes.
