Yes. Tool-offset refers to the allowance made by a milling machine to account for variations in tool size and shift its position. It ensures the CNC machine is operating on the right part of the workpiece. These adjustments ensure accurate and consistent machining.

Yes. A punch press is a CNC-controlled machine used to cut holes in material by applying pressure to a die in which a workpiece is held.

No. Patton can perform CNC milling on metal, plastic, or ceramics using rotating cutting tools with 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis processes for high-precision machining at high speeds. Patton also offers various types of 3D printing, material molding including injection molding and over-molding.

CNC means Computer Numerical Control. CNC milling and turning are subtractive manufacturing processes where CNC controlled cutting tools remove material from a workpiece to create a desired shape. The difference between milling and turning is that in milling, the workpiece remains stationary, while the workpiece rotates in turning operations. CNC milling and turning can be…

Patton presents comprehensive proposals that outline a clear “roadmap” to success, aiming not just for a production-ready product, but one in which the customer can achieve sales and revenue. We emphasize that all recommended project components are crucial for reaching the desired outcome. Based on extensive experience, we advise customers that deviating from this roadmap,…

Patton excels at requirements discovery, particularly with clients who may not routinely engage in contract manufacturing and are unsure of what to ask for. During Q&A sessions, we actively work to define and “demarcate” project requirements, translating vague ideas into concrete, quotable specifications. This collaborative approach ensures that both parties clearly understand the project scope,…

Patton incorporates customer education as a key part of its sales process. This involves clarifying the line between the customer’s design responsibility and Patton’s role and explaining our comprehensive contract manufacturing process. We listen to customers’ needs, ask pertinent questions, and address potential blind spots or areas where customers may not know what to ask….

Patton’s sales team is composed of knowledgeable, technology savvy people who are backed by a vast network of in-house technical counterparts. This allows us to engage deeply with customers from the very first interaction, providing immediate answers to technical questions without needing to “get back to you.” Our extensive experience means we’ve often encountered similar…

Patton seeks to establish genuine, long-term partnerships, viewing customers as “family.” We are not interested in one-off, small jobs, but rather in building relationships that evolve over time, recognizing that a customer with a small initial need may have many more projects in the future. This commitment is reflected in customer experience, which emphasizes open…
