Services

At Wrazen Machining & Design I offer a variety of services for you machining and designing needs. Below are just some of the services that I offer.  If you have any additional needs, please feel free to contact me.  I look forward to helping you with your Mechanical and Design needs!

 

Powder Coating

Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. Unlike conventional liquid paint, which is delivered via an evaporating solvent, powder coating is typically applied electrostatically and then cured under heat or with Ultraviolet light. The powder may be a thermoplastic or a thermoset polymer. It is usually used to create a hard finish that is tougher than conventional paint. Powder coating is mainly used for coating of metals, such as household appliances, aluminium extrusions, drum hardware, automobile, motorcycle, and bicycle parts.  The powder coating process was invented around 1945 by Daniel Gustin US Patent 2538562.

I offer professional Powder Coating services in numerous colors. Powder coating is one of many coloring processes for industrial purposes.

3D Printing

3D printing, or additive manufacturing, is the construction of a three-dimensional object from a CAD model or a digital 3D model. The term "3D printing" can refer to a variety of processes in which material is joined or solidified under computer control to create a three-dimensional object, with material being added together (such as liquid molecules or powder grains being fused together), typically layer by layer.

Reverse Engineering

Reverse engineering provides manufacturers with information about the design of a product or component. When done successfully, reverse engineering gives you a virtual copy of the blueprint that went into the original design.

Reverse engineering is perhaps the most accurate way to recreate the designs for items that went out of production decades beforehand. In cases where the original blueprints are long since lost or destroyed, reverse engineering is perhaps the only way to bring such products back to life. If you can obtain a working model of an old product, you can typically trace the steps of its design and use those insights to construct a new model, repair a part or improve future products.

Reverse Engineering Example
A professional car builder and customizer was building a 427 Shelby kit car.  The exhaust pipes attached to the engine needed to be connected to the  outside side pipes. However, the adapter that was needed for the connection could not be obtained because that company was no longer in business. So,  the owner Pete, from Pete’s Garage, contacted me to see if I could help.  He had the fiber gasket that was to be used in his possession and gave it to me look at. It was in perfect condition and I was able to take accurate measurements from it. I created a drawing fully dimensioned, printed it out in full scale size and placed the fiber gasket on top to verify dimensions. It matched up perfectly and I proceeded to make the CNC program to machine the adapters from 1/2” thick steel. Look at the pictures of the gasket, gasket drawing and the 3D visualization of the machining process. Then view the YouTube video below to watch the actual manufacture of the flanges.  An excellent example of Reverse Engineering.

Precision Prototypes

A prototype is an early sample, model, or release of a product built to test a concept or process. A prototype is generally used to evaluate a new design to enhance precision by system analysts and users. Prototyping serves to provide specifications for a real, working system rather than a theoretical one.

Are you looking for a professional prototype for your design idea? I can help by manufacturing a professional prototype from your blueprints and drawings.

Precision Machining

Precision machining is a process that removes excess, raw material from a work-piece, while holding close tolerance finishes, to create a finished product. ... This process involves cutting, milling, turning, and electrical discharge machining, and is generally performed using Computer Numerical Control (CNC) equipment.

I use modern CNC (Computer Numerical Controls) milling in our precision machining. I also provide precision 3 axis and 4 axis milling.
