SEMI-AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN BOLT HEAD PRODUCED BY MICRO TOOL COMPANY

With over 50 years of experience, our extensive knowledge of modern CNC Swiss Machining and special processes gives us a competitive advantage.  This project required us to precisely control the geometry and tolerance of this critical firearm component to allow for multiple post machining special processes which all affect the finished part size.   These included austemper heat treating, shot-peening, and an electroless Nickel/Teflon final coating.   Even with these three post machining processes we were still able to demonstrate a Process Capability (Cpk) of better than 1.33
