CUSTOM MACHINES

Custom machines provide specific solutions for specific applications and, therefore, offer the most efficient and cost-effective method of manufacturing.

SPECIAL PURPOSE MACHINES

Ultra Tech has designed and built special purpose machines and processing equipment for over twenty years. We provide complete design and build of special machines from simple dedicated machines to high volume rotary transfer machines and highly specialized “one of” designs.

The Ultra Tech special purpose machine development process is a thorough multi-step process that ensures the long term success of the machine:

  • Development of a comprehensive functional specification
  • Complete design using our 3-D solid modeling capability
  • Finite element analysis of critical components
  • Managed equipment build
  • Machine acceptance testing

We are proud that regardless of complexity, our special-purpose machines have the look and ease of operation of a standard machine.

Put our special purpose machines experts to work for you.

How Custom Equipment can Maximize Productivity and Efficiency

When exploring options for what type of equipment to purchase for making your part, a custom machine may well provide the best solution. Custom machines provide specific solutions for specific applications and, therefore, offer the most efficient and cost-effective method of manufacturing.

Here is a brief review of some of the primary benefits of custom machines, using a rotary transfer machine as an example:

  • QUALITY

    In most cases a custom rotary transfer machine allows you to complete the part in one clamping creating the optimal scenario for holding and maintaining tight tolerance, high volume work.

  • EFFICIENCY

    With the ability to employ up to twelve, 3 axes (X, Y & Z) modules simultaneously, cycle times can be dramatically reduced, in most cases to as short as 8 – 15 seconds on a complex work piece. Automatic tool changers and/or Turret heads can also be introduced at any station allowing for maximum future flexibility.

  • SPACE SAVINGS

    By completing a part on one single custom rotary transfer machine verses multiple single spindle machines, occupied floor space is drastically reduced as well as power consumption.

  • AUTOMATION

    In many cases customers choose to load and unload their custom rotary transfer machine robotically, thereby saving time and labor.
