"Great insights! One-clamping machining is crucial for maintaining those tight flatness and parallel specs – we’ve seen similar success. I'd be curious if they found a sweet spot for surface finish, perhaps aiming for a slope 2 on certain features. And yes, through-hardened tool steel for lash caps is definitely worth the investment for durability. #ManufacturingTips"
