Feature-added Machine-Ready Blanks are milled to the same tight tolerances as Custom Blanks, but include one or more customer specified features. A typical added feature might be a large amount of material removal, for example, milling six sides of a rectangular Blank with opposing steps, or hog out. This not only saves time, but also reduces wear and tear on your equipment. When Feature-added Machine-Ready Blanks arrive in your shop less in-house machine time is required. Specify a single added feature or multiple features – all the way to a finished part if required.
