Founded in 1956, TCI Precision Metals is a family-owned precision manufacturer producing precision Machine-Ready Blanks from aluminum, stainless steel, and other alloys. Machine-Ready Blanks from TCI Precision Metals help shops shorten setup time, reduce scrap and increase overall throughput up to 25 percent by eliminating material prep, according to the company. Machine-Ready Blanks are designed to arrive machine-ready for production. Standard size blanks in low quantities are ready for immediate shipping, but customers are able to order custom, made-to-order blanks in production quantities for quick turnaround.
Precision blanks eliminate the need for in-house sawing, grinding, flattening, squaring operations and outside processing. Each blank arrives deburred, clean and individually packaged to avoid damage during shipping. The blanks can be ordered online for same-day or next-day shipping, and arrive square, flat and parallel within ± .002” of specified dimensions all around. Custom made-to-order blanks are made to customer specifications and are guaranteed as close as +/- .0005” dimensionally and as close as .0002” flatness, squareness and parallelism.
