We design, build and produce customized tools and gauges

The production of mechanical components is a field that requires a high level of precision and accuracy. 

Our experience in the industrial, medical and aerospace sectors taught us that it is often necessary to study and design customized tools and gauges according to the customer’s drawings.

Our company’s expertise and specific know-how, gained in 60 years of work in the field, allows us to focus on the production of customized gauges, thus providing custom design and manufacturing services according to our customer’s specific needs.

We study the best solutions starting from the customer’s drawings or blueprints to execute precision machinings that meet the technical requirements as well as respecting the environment and sector needs. Examples of this are the plug testing gauges for automatic checking machines, high-speed steel gauges and differential forks as well as measuring systems.

Optimisation of the production line according to Tamburini

We follow the customer in each phase of the production, from the study and planning process until the execution and production of the customized tools. By doing so, each technical need is considered and met in advance.

All of this is possible thanks to Tamburini’s experience in the field of precision machining, as well as the application of measuring tools and advanced digital systems, and thanks to our high-qualified staff. 

With Tamburini every project is developed by a team of designers, makers and inspectors. It is supervised by a single contact person who follows and verifies each step of the project with the customer, collecting all important data. Thanks to the single contact person method, Tamburini ensures the successful outcome of the project:

  • we guide the customer at all times,
  • we avoid the scattering of information, 
  • we optimise the production line making it a faster process

Why do we produce customized gauges

Knowledge and expertise are the characteristics that distinguish us. Our 60 years in the field allows us to provide our customers with the optimal solutions for their needs.

Our ability to listen and the chance to design and produce custom solutions allow us to provide high-quality products. We design tools, gauges and measuring systems to meet all the clients’ needs with extreme precision and accuracy.

Customized gauges for the medical field: the Orthofix case study

We can implement our skills in multiple industrial sectors, such as the medical one. This means having specific requirements to meet, which is also why precision is our standard, especially when working with Orthofix, Italian leader in the field of orthopedic implants.

Our customers handle, among other things, the production of medical screws that are used for hip surgeries. Our intervention, in this case, involves the production of customized gauges to check medical screws. This kind of screw is colloquially called “nail”, however, they are complex mechanical tools made of various components.

Customized gauges from blueprints: Tamburini’s steps

Drawing examination

The first phase of every custom project starts from the detailed examination of the product’s drawing and blueprint provided by the custom and the gauge used for control.

Drafting and confrontation

A first draft is developed and sent to the customer to evaluate each detail and report any changes they would like to make. Our team exchanges information with the customer to make changes without compromising precision and efficiency in the product.

Draft approval

Based on the details agreed with the customer, the project is updated and evaluated by the customer for final approval.

Sample model

For us during the work process is fundamental to keep an open conversation with the customer at all times regarding the mathematical models as well as the real measurements of the sample models.

Product Testing

Once the customer is satisfied with the results, we test the product functions together.

Production and supply

As the sample model is approved, we proceed to the production of the custom gauges. 

Advisors

Even if the supply might be considered complete in this phase, our job is only partially done.  Because Tamburini is always available for its customers to make changes that better the products.
