Precision Resources, Inc. (PRI) was founded in November 1987. From the outset, one of the primary objectives of PRI has been to represent a mix of technically oriented metal working companies offering alternative manufacturing processes for the exacting production of complex high volume parts. Our Clients are typically involved in Original Equipment Manufacturing.

PRI is not a manufacturing company. We provide the professional and technical sales services to assist our Clients in identifying and evaluating the pros/cons of alternative/competing manufacturing methods.

The decision to engage the services of the manufacturing companies we represent is driven by our prospective client's considerations for optimum execution of their part design at quality and economic values consistent with their projected part performance criteria.

Applications for the metal working processes we represent exist in virtually all market areas:

Aircraft / Aerospace Communications Defense / Ordnance Firearms Machinery & Equipment

Communications Consumer Products Electrical / Electronic Hardware Medical / Dental

Our primary client service objective is to help in the discovery of the metal working process that best serves the clients part performance and cost criteria. Each metal working process has key attributes...for example:

Aluminum Impact Extrusions — A Press / Die forming process that rapidly shapes volume controlled metal slugs into near or net geometry parts. Well suited for moderate to high volume production of "can like" parts.

Aluminum Linear Extrusions — A Press / Die forming process that provides for the continuous cross-sectional linear shaping of a metal billet as it is control pushed through a Die Plate. The cross-sectional geometry / size and run-out length is influenced by Die Design and Press capacity considerations.

CNC Machining — A metal removal process that has excellent repeatability for the creation of very close tolerance parts in wide ranging size, part geometry and unit volume.

Die Castings — The introduction of molten metal (aluminum, brass, copper, zinc) under pressure into a reuseable mold to form an intricate shape whose size is controlled by the capacity of the molding machine. An economic method for repeat high volume parts.

Powder Metal (PM) — Alloy Powders are compacted in a Die, the resultant shape is then sintered in a controlled atmosphere furnace to bond the particles metallurgically. PM is a economic method of making parts in moderate to high volume that may require secondary machining to complete the geometry of intricate parts.
