Custom High-Pressure Stainless Steel Tube Fittings

Custom high-pressure stainless steel tube fittings are designed to offer reliable and secure connections in applications that require precision and durability. They come in a range of sizes, materials, and configurations to meet the needs of any application.

• Union
• Nipple
• Reducer
• Adapter

The most common custom metal fittings available include:

Depending on the design requirements for your application or system, custom fittings can be manufactured from different metals such as brass or stainless steel. At Buell Automatics, we specialize in custom high-pressure stainless steel tube fittings designed to meet the most stringent requirements. 

Our skilled machinists use the latest manufacturing techniques and state-of-the-art technology to ensure that our products precisely meet the client’s specifications. We also offer comprehensive customization options, including thread types, angles, lengths, and sizes to suit specific requirements. 

Davenport Multi-Spindle Screw Machining

A multi-spindle screw machine consists of multiple spindles running concurrently with each other, which helps speed up the production process by allowing parts to be cut simultaneously. 

Each spindle houses an indexable tool head that carries out the cutting operation. This tool head is operated by either manual control or programmable CNC machining, which is then linked to a feeder and bar loader. The spindles can be adjusted to various angles, allowing for complex parts and shape to be created with precision. 

Buell Automatics Davenport multi-spindle screw machines are renowned for their superior engineering, allowing for the efficient and accurate production of complex parts. These powerful machines are equipped with a rigid spindle and four adjustable angle heads which make it possible to produce different shapes and sizes quickly and accurately.  

To further increase efficiency, our multi-spindles come with multiple tooling options, including:

• Taps
• Drills
• Reamers
• Counterbores
• And many more 

This allows users to create intricate parts in one single setup. 

In-House Passivation Services

Many companies use in-house passivation services to ensure their products are corrosion-resistant and meet industry standards. The process involves using a chemical bath to remove surface contaminants, such as dirt, oil, and grease, before applying a protective layer of stainless steel oxide. 

This layer protects against further corrosion and helps improve the product’s appearance. By providing in-house passivation services, companies can reduce costs associated with outsourcing this service to an outside provider. In addition, they can better monitor the quality of their products throughout the entire production process. 

At Buell Automatics, our in-house passivation services are designed to meet the highest industry standards. Our experienced technicians use specialized equipment and chemicals to ensure all surfaces are properly cleaned and passivated. We also offer a range of customizations for specific customer requirements. 

With our expertise, you can be sure that your products will be corrosion-resistant and look their best. Our in-house passivation services provide a cost-effective and reliable way to protect your valuable investments.

Precision CNC Machining

Precision CNC machining is a method of manufacturing components with high levels of accuracy and efficiency. It utilizes automated computer numerical control (CNC) machines to carve out the desired parts without human intervention. With this process, it can produce complex geometries, detailed features, and intricate shapes with extreme precision. 

The advantage of using Buell Automatics CNC precision machining technology include the following:

• Efficient in producing repeatable parts in large volumes at low cost.
• It gives manufacturers more freedom in creating unique designs since the process can quickly transform a digital 3D model into an actual physical part with few steps required from manual labor. 
• Since the entire process is computer controlled, there is very little margin for error as each component will be made precisely as programmed.

Due to its versatility and accuracy, Buell Automatics precision machining is used in a wide range of industries, including fluid control, agriculture, manufacturing, automotive, and many more. By utilizing this technology, manufacturers can quickly create complex parts that would otherwise be too expensive or difficult to make with traditional tooling methods. 

Precision Fittings

Precision fittings are an essential component of many industrial systems. They provide a secure and reliable way to connect components, allowing for the transfer of liquids, gases, and other materials in a safe manner. 

Precision fittings also adjust flow rates, pressure levels, and pipe lengths. To ensure their reliability, precision fittings must comply with stringent industry standards. 

Buell Automatics manufactures quality precision fittings that meet or exceed the highest industry standards. Our products are designed using the latest technology for superior performance and durability. We offer a wide range of standard and custom-made parts that can be customized to your exact specifications. 

Whether you need low-pressure or high-pressure fittings, we can provide a reliable solution. We also offer design and engineering services to help you select the best components for your application.

Coolant Through (CT) Deep Hole Drilling

Coolant Through (CT) Deep Hole Drilling allows manufacturers to drill various materials accurately and efficiently, including stainless steel, titanium, and aluminum. 

This technique utilizes high-pressure coolant fed through the drill bit to reduce heat buildup and friction during drilling. This helps to minimize tool wear, increases productivity, reduces cycle times, and improves surface finish quality compared to traditional dry hole drilling methods.

Buell Automatic deep hole drilling processes take advantage of all the benefits and features of CT Deep Hole Drilling. Using state-of-the-art CNC machinery, we can provide precision drilling for small and large diameter holes with various depths.

Secondary Additional Services

Heat treating can be used to modify the properties of a metal to increase its durability and strength. Heat treating involves subjecting the metal to very high temperatures, usually over 1000°F, which causes changes within the chemical composition and structure of the material. Depending on their intended application, the heat treatment process can also create specific hardening or softening effects on metals. 

Benefits of heat treatment

Heat treatment is beneficial for metals and alloys for the following reasons:

• Improved tensile strength
• Increased wear resistance 
• Increased fatigue strength
• Reduced residual stresses
• Improved machinability
• Excellent surface finish . 

Buell Automatics offers top-notch metal heat treating services for industrial businesses. Our heat treating process is carefully designed to ensure that your parts are treated with the utmost care to be in good condition once delivered.
