With
the company's 22 years of experience making parts for all types of
industries, Halsey Engineering & Manufacturing, Inc. can also
handle unique prototype and R&D parts.
Every
metal or plastic part has its own characteristics and requires specific
types of machines and tools to manufacture it. Halsey Engineering has
machined parts for aerospace, chemical processing, electronics,
aircraft, medical, microwave, antenna, transportation, and OEM parts
for many more industries. "We have made parts for hydraulics, material
handling, gage sub assemblies, race cars, oil field and medical
apparatus, to name just a few more," said Donald Halsey Jr., C.E.O. of
the company.
The
materials used to make the parts may be aluminum, stainless steel,
brass, plastic or copper materials from plate, bars, rods, castings or
extrusions.
The
machines that make the parts at Halsey Engineering are CNC machining
centers and CNC turning centers plus a variety of toolroom equipment
including a saw, milling machines, lathes, grinders, sanders, deburring
machines and presses. One CNC turning center has the capacity to turn a
bar 2.75" in diameter and 24" in length. The chuck diameter is 10".
Another turning center has an 8" diameter chuck with a 2" diameter bar
capacity at 15" length. The company's vertical machining centers (VMCs)
have capacities of up to 50" X-axis, 20" Y-axis and 25" Z-axis.
Utilizing a rotary table with 360,000 possible positions makes the VMCs
capable of machining complex parts.
Halsey
Engineering employs inspection tools traceable to NIST to verify parts
delivered to customer's requirements. The measuring instruments to
perform these functions include height measuring, Jo Blocks, Intrimiks,
and other gages. "We have been surveyed by manufacturers who have
granted accreditation to our quality control procedures in accordance
with MIL-1-45662 and MIL-1-45208A," explained Mr. Halsey.
Customers
can e-mail part programs or CAD files to Halsey Engineering. A
state-of-the-art computer aided manufacturing (CAM) system with up to
4-axis capabilities will turn a CAD file into a part program ready to
be downloaded to a machine.
The
ten or more employees at the company work together to meet their
customer's requirements for quality parts. "We are uniquely positioned
at the top of the "Golden Triangle" in Denton, Texas, offering
engineering and CNC machining capabilities," said Donald Halsey. "We
can help with reverse engineering and prototyping as well as machining
parts." Halsey Engineering has had the opportunity to be part of
start-up manufacturing with companies such as Peterbilt, the Super
Conducting Super Collider and new concept devices for a fuel cell.
