t Rice Tool, our specialty is machining automotive die cast components. We understand the unique requirements of high volume, low cost, small parts processing and are uniquely set up to accommodate these requirements. Our expertise in machine, tooling and fixturing design results in high productivity with extremely low parts per thousand defects.


LET US ASSESS YOUR NEEDS
Even if you are only contemplating the outsourcing of the machining of a particular part, it is well worthwhile having Rice Tool quote the job in order to be able to better analyze your machining options from a cost and quality perspective.
At the quotation stage, we fully assess the machining process and determine which of our varied machining centres will best serve your needs for that job. Then, we determine whether an investment in retooling or machine modification will create production efficiencies.

It is this ability to modify or even assemble new machining centres along with parts processing systems that assists us in being a realistic outsourcing option for many companies. In fact, this same expertise not only moves us into the low cost supplier slot, it also allows us to machine difficult and thin section parts with no distortion in high volume.

In many cases, our innovative fixturing and machine set-ups allow us to perform multiple operations in one pass, significantly reducing labour content. Our wide variety of available machinery in our plant allows us to specialize on both low and high volume production runs in addition to prototypes and one offs.

PARTS STORAGE
A significant advantage in dealing with Rice Tool is our parts storage facilities and financial security. We can optimize your supply chain material movements to maximize the efficiency of your operations rather than having to make small and frequent deliveries due to space or cash restraints.

We welcome the opportunity to discuss your potential needs.
