Engineering Services

At Mica-Tron Products Corp. we have provided precision machining of syntactic foam, plastics, ceramics, and other non-metals for over 60 years. Our facility has 12,000 square feet of climate controlled space and an expert staff thoroughly trained in the use of our state-of-the-art milling, turning, and grinding equipment. 

Quotation:

We exclusively use senior engineering staff to review all requests for quotation. This helps us ensure an accurate and comprehensive response. We typically respond to quote requests within 48 hours. During this process, we will review your design and address frequent issues, such as:

  • Is the specified material readily available?
  • Is the material available in the size required?
  • Can the geometry of the part be machined?
  • Can the material meet the specified dimensional requirements?
  • Are there features which could be achieved more easily if the geometry is slightly modified?
  • What is the expected lead time for your job?

Manufacturing:

Upon receipt of your order, it is entered into our MRP software. Our engineering staff will determine the most efficient methodology to make your parts. This can include creating custom fixtures, creating or sourcing custom tooling, and deriving CNC toolpaths based on your drawings and/or CAD files. With our state of the art CAD/CAM software, we can accept virtually any file type.

Our engineers are also experts at maximizing yield from expensive materials. We can accurately predict your yield based on your design and the required material, and ensure material is never over purchased.

Quality Assurance:

Mica-Tron Products Corp. is ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100D certified. Our entire staff is trained on FOD, counterfeit products, and the importance of ethical behavior. From the first piece to the final production run, our engineering staff will ensure your parts meet or exceed every quality requirement. When specified, an AS9102 FAIR will be provided with the shipment along with material certifications, and a Certificate of Compliance. 

When your order is complete, our shipping specialist will carefully package all parts to ensure protection during shipment.
