CNC machining tips and trends

Every year at Protomatic, we see and review thousands of blueprints during our quoting process. Our goal for each is the same: To review even the smallest detail of the blueprint in a manner that allows us to accurately quote and manufacture the part.

Today’s world of metrology is diverse and sophisticated. In many manufacturing processes, there is and probably always will be, a place for tactile gages. Among those physical instruments are: calipers, bore, ring, plug, thread, radius, height gages, micrometers, and coordinate measurement machines.

Protomatic is a machine shop that believes in providing our customers with the custom parts they need, no matter the sizing. Technically small parts are hard to make. As you get smaller, challenges arise.

Two recent SME events prove that the future looks bright, indeed, for manufacturing and engineering.

The death of trade shows is greatly exaggerated.

Protomatic recently headed to California and hosted a booth at the MD&M West Show at the Anaheim Convention Center. The MD&M show is all about Medical Device and Manufacturing.

Protomatic Inc. is a leading manufacturing machine shop for precision prototypes, CNC machining, and assembly. We understand that when you are looking to manufacture a prototype or product, you are also looking to extend your team.

It’s a scary world out there.

The Internet of Things (IOT) is here — and warp-speed advances in technology is causing it to grow by leaps and bounds. We see it both in manufacturing and in our everyday lives. Our fridges can remind us of what to pick up at the store.

Annual Internal Audits (First-Party Audit)

Protomatic manufactures precision CNC parts for the aerospace and medical industries. To help ensure that every part meets optimum quality standards, we perform regular independent inspections of the Quality Management System. These inspections are

Protomatic is a CNC machine shop that specializes in Aerospace and Medical components, but we provide for a variety of industries. We take your design ideas and turn them into realities.

It seems as though bad news comes in waves, and Covid-19 is now in Wave 5. While there appears to be light at the end of the tunnel, the effect that Covid is having on our industry is still significant. Following are some of the areas Covid is impacting, and how Protomatic is dealing with it.

At Protomatic, “Life-Saving Precision” is the bar we set for every component we support and manufacture. Whether for medical or aerospace, we know that our parts can save lives. So we’re not just demanding about details. We’re obsessive.

At Protomatic, we know your idea is important and that is why we ensure it is safe all the way until the finished product.
