CNC Swiss Screw Machining of Nickel Copper Electrical Contact


Ostec Industries has a highly regarded reputation in many industries for providing cost-effective and accurate solutions for critical parts. We fabricated the copper-nickel electrical contact pictured here to meet the exacting demands of an aerospace industry application.

Featuring dimensions of Ø 6.3 mm and 28.25 mm in length, the combination of computerized equipment and highly skilled machinists enabled us to achieve tight ± 0.01 mm tolerances when fabricating the part. Secondary operations consisted of nickel plating to impart a hard wearing, corrosion resistant surface that would guarantee the performance of this aircraft component. Multiple inspection processes at various points in the production cycle ensured the parts met specification demands.

Production quantity for this project was 180,000 pieces, shipped to the customer in quantities of 30,000 parts a month for six months.
