Saw cutting
Our high-quality saws and advanced cutting techniques provide more precise steel components to complete your projects. NSA has six, fully-automatic saws, including cold abrasive saws and band saws, that are capable of cutting single or multi-cut jobs up to 22” in diameter. Square cuts and tight tolerances are our specialties.
- Production (multi-cuts)
- Unique Cuts (special shapes)
- Waterjet
Heat Treating
The heat-treating process involves controlled heating and cooling of solid metals and alloys to manipulate the final mechanical properties. This service can optimize the performance and reliability of your metal components. Some benefits include increasing the strength and hardness of a metal, improving its resistance to wear and abrasion, and increasing the ductility of a metal.
- Straighten & Stress Relieving
- Anneal & Aging
- Quench & Tempering
Inside Diameter Work
Inside Diameter Work (ID) involves machining the inside surface of a material to achieve specific size and tolerance requirements. To the opposite effect of OD, this process typically produces a smooth, precise surface on the inside of the component. Our team has a high level of technical expertise and experience in performing ID work, which will help deliver a final product that meets your specifications and requirements.
- Boring
- Gundrilling
- Honing
- Trepanning
Outside Diameter Work
Outside Diameter Work (OD) involves machining the outside surface of a material to achieve specific size and tolerance requirements. It is typically used to produce a smooth, precise surface on the outside of the metal component. By having NSA perform the necessary OD work, we can confirm that the product meets the exact specifications required for the project, including size and tolerance requirements. We can also help minimize lead times and speed up the fabrication process.
- Centerless Grinding
- Grinding Between Centers
- Lathe Turning
- Polishing
Special Machining
By performing machining operations before your product is shipped, NSA can ensure that your components meet the exact specifications required. This reduces the likelihood of errors and ensures that the materials are ready for immediate use. Our machining services minimize the need for additional processing and handling, which can help reduce lead times and increase efficiency.
- Drilling
- Milling
- Finished & Pre-Finished Parts
- Threading (drill & tap)
Testing
NSA provides peace of mind and helps ensure the success of your projects from the beginning. We can confirm that the material meets the required specifications and quality standards. This helps to reduce the risk of defects and promises that you receive a consistent, high-quality product.
