Case Study:

Drill and Tap in One Operation

Drilling and Tapping in the same machine cycle is a common request from Rockford-Ettco's customers. Many manufacturers of automotive parts have chosen Rockford-Ettco to provide durable, reliable, and precise machines to meet the demanding quality and cost requirements of the automotive industry. Rockford-Ettco's skilled engineering and technical staff have a long history of meeting and exceeding the needs of these customers. 

A major automotive aftermarket manufacturer commissioned Rockford-Ettco to design and build a machine to drill and tap parts in adjacent stations. The pictured machine met the overall needs of this customer for a specialized machine at a reasonable cost. Rockford-Ettco's engineers accomplished this by building this “custom“ machine from a standard machine platform.
