With over 
          fifty years experience and three generations of manufacturing, Picut 
          Manufacturing Company relies on state-of-the-art technology and 
          equipment to satisfy the demanding needs of its customers. 
        A total 
          commitment to, and continual reinvestment in, plant and equipment will 
          launch PMC into the new millennium with nearly 100 employees and a 50,000 
          square foot environmentally-controlled production facility. 
        Customer 
          satisfaction is our number one priority, and we not stop until PMC 
          customers receive on-time delivery of a product that reflects our rigid 
          standards of perfection.
        If you 
          require the resources of a manufacturing facility with a diverse spectrum 
          of precision Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) equipment 
          and in-depth experience with complex multi-unit assemblies, you will 
          find all this and more at Picut Manufacturing Company.
        PMC's progressive 
          engineering and CNC programming staff use computer aided design and 
          manufacturing software (AutoCad, Mastercam) on an integrated system 
          of workstations to analyze and meet today's complex production challenges 
          both quickly and efficiently. Through this computer network all facets 
          of the company from scheduling to customer service can work compatibly 
          together to produce a quality product and deliver it on-time to our 
          customers.
        PMC has 
          always felt that when it comes to manufacturing, quality must be built 
          into the organization. Our quality control department staffed by highly 
          trained in-process and final inspectors, enables us to produce precision 
          machined parts and assemblies to the highest standards. With the implementation 
          of statistical process control (SPC), we are able to quickly 
          locate and eliminate any manufacturing deficiencies before they become 
          detrimental problems. 
        With a 
          full programmable coordinate measuring machine (CMM), accurate 
          to within one hundred-millionth of an inch, PMC can dimensionally inspect 
          extremely complex parts easily and efficiently by simply loading a part 
          onto the machine and pressing a button. With this level of sophistication, 
          we are confident in meeting any quality challenge presented to us.
        JIT 
          (Just in Time) manufacturing is not just a goal at PMC - 
          it has become a reality by employing a group of horizontal palletized 
          machining centers which all but eliminate the continual refixturing 
          of various parts. In fact, a total of eight different parts can be set-up 
          on each of the eight pallets and run simultaneously on one machine. 
          Raw material is received on a JIT basis, the parts are machined on a 
          JIT basis and shipped accordingly to the customer, thereby minimizing 
          inventory expenses and reducing costs. Cost reduction is not the only 
          benefit from this type of system. By reducing the number of set-ups 
          an operator must make - which minimizes opportunity for errors - quality 
          is improved as well.
        Maintaining 
          such technically complex equipment requires tremendous engineering talents, 
          in-depth tool design capabilities and experienced fixture design groups. 
          Add SPC inspection and JIT manufacturing to the formula, and you have 
          the winning combination that has established PMC as a highly diversified 
          precision manufacturing group still sensitive to the needs of its customers.
        In adopting 
          a zero defect approach to manufacturing, PMC surpasses the expectations 
          of even its most critical customers. From precision milling on VMC's 
          (Vertical Machining Centers) to machining parts thirty inches in diameter 
          to internal broaching of complex shapes, Picut runs the gamut of versatility. 
          On our super precision bar feed turning centers, which eliminate the 
          hand loading of parts by the operator, we can maintain fifty millionths 
          of an inch accuracy and still do it rapidly. Commensurate with such 
          tight tolerancing specifications, PMC uses the most advanced electromechanical 
          internal and external gaging systems available to measure these dimensions.
