A Tampa, Florida aircraft manufacturer found itself in a pinch. Their normal supplier was a local machine shop on the lower coast, wiped out by a hurricane just as their order was due. They called upon Owens to complete the job in a rush. The components they needed machined were aircraft door stops, crafted from titanium. As a crucial part of an airplane, ensuring all doors are secure during flight, the direction of the titanium plate was critical to the long-term strength of the component. Precision machining services – including 5 axis and micromachining – were utilized to achieve the exact tolerances this component required.
Our CNC machinists created the first 100 parts in less than two weeks, helping our client meet their customer’s deadline. Impressed by our swift turnaround and precise results, they now continue to purchase their parts from us more than eight years later.
