What Customized Services does Teamco Provide for Machined Metal Parts?
To face various customer requirements, Teamco has vast experiences in understanding customer’s needs and then provide them good solutions. If you have machined metal parts to be quoted, please provide us detailed information relative to product designs, specifications, inspections and applications. Why knowing the product application is important? Because the defined precision, strength and surface finish, etc. are different. More details would help we understand your demands completely and correctly.
Do I have to provide the engineering drawings for quote?
Yes, this is highly recommended. Formal drawings provide complete dimensions, tolerances and technical requirements. If you do not have drawing, partial situations this is acceptable for our initial review, but our cost estimation might not completely fit the required quality. After receiving your drawings, we would also need to know the applications for this component or assembly kit parts. This helps our evaluation is more complete and then ensures our solution fulfills your requirements.
Can I have a quote if my usage is low?
Yes, we can quote based on your usage and the production MOQ. Each production method has specific lot MOQ. Such as casting, the shell molds used for pouring the melt metal are produced by the assembled wax trees. Each wax tree contains several wax molds. This is determined to the pattern design at the beginning. Exact MOQ for specific production method needs to be confirmed with our sales team.
Does the material specification have to be in the US standards?
ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials International) and AISI (American Iron and Steel Institute) are the standards we have been applying the most. For equivalent European standard, DIN, or Japanese standard, JIS, some detailed requirements might differ from ASTM or AISI, but main material properties are similar, can be substituted and operated with US standards in most applications.
What surface treatments Teamco provide?
According to demands of various use environments, the metal parts need to be applied with specific surface treatments or coatings which can be served as rust-resistant or wear-resistant. When it needs to be rust-proof and also luminous, usually we apply electro-polishing or satin/ mirror hand polishing. If we need the metal surface to be against the roughness, we usually apply zinc phosphate coating or QPQ (quench-polish-quench) based on customer requests. Electroless nickle plaing is another popular option to enhance rust-resistance, wear-resistance and also the weldability. More details we can provide, please contact our sales team.
Do you provide MTR for each shipment?
Yes, we provide MTR (Mill Test Report) for each shipment. All our materials are compliant to customer requirements and international standards. The MTR will include test results of chemical components and mechanical properties based on each traceable furnace no. Custom format of MTR is also accepted after confirming with our team. If customer requests assigned inspections which might need to send to the third party for test, relative costs will be charged.
