Selecting pre-machined components is often a cost effective solution as it eliminates customers own stockholding, crosscutting and machining, as well as converting fixed costs to variable. Ovako has comprehensive resources for manufacturing pre-components in various grades of machining.
Our pre-components are produced with close tolerances combined with a high and even level of quality. Pre-components from bar and tube can be produced from all executions, available in a wide range of sizes and steel grades.
Reducing global CO2 emissions demands smarter product solutions and requires rethinking on many levels: more performance benefits per kilogram of product, less raw materials, and substituting fossil fuel energy sources with primarily fossil-free electricity.
