In spring of 2007, Vectorworks has doubled it's machining volume to 50,000+ cu. ft. of milling envelope with the addition of a new 103' x 28' x 13' high speed CNC router. Our machines are available for machining plugs and limited production molds for the composites industry. It uses its proprietary mold assembly and production processes to produce superior plugs and molds at very competitive prices. VM further employs the top machining, lofting and finishing supervisors and technicians to complete the team and produce the highest quality full production molds. VM pioneered the development of the limited production tool (LPT) process for prototype and smaller production runs that do not anticipate large annual sales volumes. LPT enables VM to accelerate the production of the first part from the mold in that VM proceeds directly from the CAD 3 dimensional design to a fully machined mold ready for final finish. Hand lofting and intermediate plugs are completely eliminated. This saves our customers substantial calendar time and cost over a full production tool until such is deemed necessary for a particular vessel.
