Prototype Manufacturing
In most cases, HPMP can deliver prototype components in a weeks time if there are no outside services required (heat treat, plating). Please note that prototypes and orders under 40,000 pieces will be made with our CNC machines. Requests for unique materials may require a longer lead time. To get a more accurate timeline, please submit a quote.
Full Production
HPMP has both CNC and Davenport Screw Machines.
A davenport project typically starts at 40,000 pieces or more quantity. If this is the case, while waiting for the custom Davenport tooling which can take 4-5 weeks to be manufactured, we are able to begin production immediately on our CNC machine. Thus increasing the turn around time for getting parts into the customers hands. Davenport machines generally create parts 10x times faster due to the design of the multi-spindle compared to a single-spindle CNC machines. However, Davenports are made for free cutting materials, such as, 2011 aluminum, brass, plastic and leaded steals.
What’s the difference between CNC
Machines and Davenport Screw Machines?
Short Answer:
Large Quantity = Davenport
Small Quantity = CNC
CNC
Pros
- In most cases, we can start making pieces on our Star CNC machine after just a few hours. Special material or custom tools can lengthen the time required to start a project.
- All prototypes are made utilizing our CNC machine.
Cons
- Create fewer pieces per hour than a davenport screw machine. On a 2-second part, you can create 1,800/hr pieces this same component would take roughly 25 seconds to complete. This creates roughly 144 pieces/hr
DAVENPORT
Pros
- Davenports are amazingly fast to produce large quantity of components
- This makes it significantly cheaper to make high quantity runs on a Davenport.
Cons
- Components can not be longer than 3 inches long and no larger than 7/8″ capacity.
- Takes 4-5 weeks for the custom Davenport tools/cams to be manufactured and another few days to setup and fine tune the project.
We believe it is important to get the right component on the right machine. With over 50 years of experience we have learned the in’s and out’s of precision machining to best support our customers.
