Pattern
Shop
The
Michigan Steel pattern shop, which covers 3,700 square feet, builds and
repairs wood, metal, and fiberglass patterns used in production.
The fully-equipped pattern shop includes a HURCO CNC milling
center which uses Ultimax . The milling center is connected to the engineering and design center.
The engineering department can accept customer models in IGES and
Pro/Engineer formats. Shrink
rule and draft are applied to these customer models for subsequent
generation of tool paths and pattern construction.
New
pattern construction and pattern alterations are also completed by a
number of local patterns shops which encompass over 30 journeymen.
Additionally, Michigan Steel has long-term relationships with pattern shops
throughout the
Midwest
and Canada.
