A New Scienscope Video Measurement System

Juell Machine has added a new XT-2000 VME Scienscope Video Measurement System. This state-of-the-art instrument is designed for non-contact, precision measurement and inspection of very small features with a level of accuracy that was previously next to impossible to achieve. In addition to extremely accurate dimensional measurements, the XT-2000 VME is used to determine the penetration of our laser welds and for metrology inspection.

At Juell Machine, uncompromising quality and reliability are built into every product we make. And, our commitment to cutting-edge inspection technology is just one more way we guarantee your components and assemblies are built to your exact specifications and delivered on time, every time.

In-House Stainless Steel Aging

Juell Machine has installed a certified aging oven and Rockwell hardness tester to bring an outside-processing operation inside. “Precipitation-hardening stainless steels purchased in solution-treated condition – 13-8 MO, 15-5 PH & 17-4 PH – require an aging process after machining to achieve the desired hardness,” explains Mike Starr. “Previously, this process was performed by an outside supplier. Now, with our certified, in-house aging equipment, we can accomplish this operation in hours instead of days, saving our customers time and money.”

Indeed, Juell Machine is one of the very few precision machining companies with in-house, stainless steel aging capabilities. Effective process control is one more way that we manage our costs and shorten lead times to offer our customers the best possible prices and the fastest, most reliable deliveries.

This new equipment not only increases our shop capacity, it also enhances the level of machining efficiency at Juell Machine. “At Juell, we are committed to the latest in machining technology,” explains Mike Starr, president. “Our customers demand the best possible service at competitive prices, and we respond with ongoing investments in equipment in order to remain at the cutting edge.” At Juell Machine we have the right combination of manufacturing knowledge and state-of-the-art equipment for all of your precision machining and assembly requirements.

New Haas VF-3 VMC with Full 5-Axis Capabilities

Juell Machine Company has added full 5-axis machining capabilities with the delivery of a Haas VF-3 VMC with built in full fifth-axis. “This new VMC will increase our overall efficiency by decreasing cycle times and reducing set-ups and parts handling for a variety of parts,” explains Ron Starr, production manager. “We will eliminate one entire operation on a high-volume, complex medical part by using this new 5-axis machining center.” Juell Machine Company is committed to the latest machine tool technology to provide the best possible value for its customers. Modern machining technology backed by fifty years of manufacturing expertise… a winning combination in today’s competitive environment. Stay on the cutting-edge with Juell Machine Company.

Laser Technology at Juell Machine Company

A few months ago, Juell Machine Company was experiencing a bottleneck in its production flow because several of the complex medical assemblies that Juell makes require laser welding and marking. “We were outsourcing these laser operations,” explains Mike Starr, president, “but we were experiencing long and unreliable turn-around times from our vendors. The decision was made to take control of these processes and bring the laser welding and marking operations in-house. Juell Machine Company has made a substantial investment in state-of-the-art equipment and training on these critical operations. Juell Machine Company is now one of the only manufacturers to offer in-house laser marking and 4-axis laser welding. “Not only do we deliver our production parts faster,” continues Mike, “we have cut the development time for prototypes.” Juell Machine Company is your source for top-quality, precision laser welding and marking.

State-of-the-Art Precision Honing

As part of a recent effort to control critical manufacturing processes, Juell Machine Company has recently installed a new Sunnen EC-3500 precision honing machine. Juell Machine Company uses this new capability to precision fit components on its medical device assemblies to within .00005 inch. “Our medical device assemblies require exacting tolerances,” explains Ron Starr, production manager. “In-house honing builds quality into each critical component and delivers a reliable product to our customers every time.” Juell Machine Company has the team and the technology. Put them to work for you.
