Heavy Duty Tie Down Casting Case Study
Overview
Problem
The customer was spending extra money having to do 100 percent X-ray and losing money on the overseas casting.
Solution
Milwaukee Precision Casting was able to change the casting design to pass the required X-ray criteria. This change did require some additional machining but was easily justified by eliminating the X-ray scrap.
