Case Study
High Precision Results of Machined Nozzles Leads to Printer Head Production
Do You Have Complex Parts Or Problem Components? We’ll Provide the Prefect CNC Solution for You!
One of the largest commercial Ink Jet Printing Companies in the nation was a longtime client of Owens Industries, utilizing our CNC services to machine print head components. We had been making little nozzles for a very long time with them. At one point in our partnership, our Vice President, Mark, made a visit to their facility to discuss other work they may have and how we could help them with it. Following this meeting, Owens Industries completely took over the production of the entire print head!
The ink used in this product is very messy liquid and the print head they had been using was leaking everywhere. Mark spoke with the assembly leads in each area to find out what problems they were experiencing in order to develop the best solution. As he did this, the buyer would work with him to cut small production runs for Owens, allowing us to see if we could fix the problems.
After about a year, Owens had taken on the entire print head and their company was shipping more print heads than ever before, with faster assembly times and less final test failures. From the first little nozzle job, a million dollar-a-year customer grew. This success led to years of a continued partnership.
Our expertise gave us the resources we needed to meet our goals with this client. Owens was able to match and exceed demands of this customer because of our open communication and continued support of providing high precision CNC services to our clients. These services include:
- Precision CNC
- Micromachining
- 5 Axis Milling
