MAIJIN Machining is an extremely versatile process that can be used to cut and shape metal parts into a wide range of sizes, shapes and configurations. These parts are often sturdier and more precise than their non-machined counterparts, making them the ideal solution for many applications in various industries.
Machined parts are made from a variety of metals, including titanium, Inconel (austenitic nickel-chromium-based superalloys), aluminum and stainless steel. When designing a part, one frequent mistake is to design walls that require machine cutting when they could be easily molded. This adds to the overall run time of a part and increases production costs.
The first option is what many people assume when their machine first goes out of order. They assume that because they model is no longer sold or is being marked down to clearance prices because of newer models, they won’t be able to find the machine parts that they need. Don’t fall for this thinking!
Just because a sewing machine is no longer selling on the shelves of most local stores doesn’t mean replacement parts aren’t still circulating out there to keep the older machines functional. Singer is a major sewing machine brand with tons of models to their credit. They believe in helping their customers get the most out of their machines, which means continuing to supply Singer sewing machine parts even after the machine has been replaced by newer models.
Local stores just aren’t the best place to search for most parts. If you are searching for a part commonly needed to keep a more recent model functional, you may have some luck, but otherwise it is not likely that you will find what you need sitting on the shelf at a craft or department store.So, what about calling Singer? This can deliver some results, but you don’t want to pay to have your machine repaired by Singer. Most replacement parts are very simple and fast to replace, so you can do it on your own without paying their fee and without shipping your heavy machine to them.
