Flame-Cut and Machined Steel Flange for the Agriculture Industry

A client from the agricultural industry asked us to produce a flame-cut and machined steel flange. We began the process by flame cutting the rough size of the 160mmx12mm EX-Ten 50 steel flange.

Using the latest Mazak CNC lathe and Okuma CNC mill, our team faced both sides of the flange before drilling and deburring 9 holes into the entire order of 360 steel flanges. We finished the product with yellow dichromate zinc plating that had a .00032″ minimum thickness.

As always, we met our client’s exacting standards and all our work was done within tightest tolerances of +0.190mm/-0.075mm.
