“One of the best purchases we’ve ever made.” – Coffey Mfg., LLC
Coffey Mfg., LLC purchased your FlexArm tapping system in late 2018. It has been one of the best purchases we have ever made. We have a small part that requires 2 each 1/4 x 20 blind threads. We use 14 each of these parts per machine that we build; it used to take 6 hours to drill and tap these 14 parts. Now with the Flex Arm system it takes us 20 minutes to complete the same 14 parts.
I have included a video of our machinist tapping 3/8 x 16 threads in blind holes. This process took 3-1/2 hours and now as you can see takes just a few minutes. Our machinist says that this is the best system he has ever used in his 25 years of machining.
Coffey Manufacturing is a world leader in manufacturing oilfield drill pipe Hardbanding equipment. With your FlexArm system we are able to operate as lean as possible and still maintain our high quality standards.
