The high production workhorse of our facility, Acme screw machines deliver high volume, precisely machined products in a cost effective manner. High performance machining and quality setup is the most important piece of the puzzle. Especially when cycle times can be 6 seconds or less for tens of thousands of pieces.
Falmer possesses eight machines which are six spindle machines ranging from 7/16” to 2” bar size that will machine parts down to as small as 1/8 inch and as big as 2 inches. It is hard to beat the cutting speed, feed rate and cycle time of a screw machine. To bring our clients the best price, our screw machine rule of thumb is to set our production run minimum at 5000.
