In the custom components industry, GEM’s capabilities are a cut above. Our management and supervisory teams have logged over 100 years of hands-on experience.

The bottom line – Better engineering. Better quality. Better value.

Machining
Your order begins at a pre-production and engineering meeting. GEM’s engineers and production team review your prints and decide on the most efficient process for production.

Next, our engineering department issues process prints and documents that highlight details important to each machinist. These drawings clarify specifications, conversions, and highlight critical dimensions. This extra step diminishes any potential for operator error as the part moves through production.

In addition, our pre-engineering strengthens the integrity of each part’s critical dimensions in a second way – by anticipating distortions and preventing them. Processes, such as heat treating or plating, may affect material sizes. To offset a variance or expansion, our process documents may tighten parameters on a first operation to allow for variances on a second. Our planning assures that your finished part or assembly conforms exactly to print specifications.

Continuous Improvement
