ACCESS Manufacturing Systems Expands Manufacturing Product Line to Include Innovative Markforged 3D Printers
ACCESS Manufacturing Systems enters the additive manufacturing market after mastering their second consecutive year as the CAMWorks 2019 Worldwide Top Sales Partner
ACCESS Manufacturing Systems is pleased to formally announce the addition of Markforged 3D Printers to their full product suite of advanced manufacturing solutions.
ACCESS has been achieving strategic expansion plans since early 2018, starting with the launch of a completely rebranded website. During that same time, ACCESS was honored as the HCL Technologies CAMWorks 2018 Worldwide Sales Partner of the Year. Only to achieve the same recognition in June 2019, earning their second consecutive year as the CAMWorks 2019 Worldwide Top Sales Partner.
"We've spent the past thirty years delivering the most advanced CAM solutions on the market. We've clearly been successful with that, and we continue to service thousands of machining companies across the nation," said Dave Dulong, founder and president of ACCESS Manufacturing Systems. "But now, with the most recent advancements taking place in 3D printing, it's so important that we provide both existing and future customers with alternative, cutting-edge and affordable 3D printing manufacturing options."
The mission and customer-service standards of ACCESS are in alignment with Markforged's vision, to increase manufacturing system efficiency through better and faster ways of making functional prototypes, tools and fixtures, and end use parts—at scale.
Markforged provides an end-to-end 3D printing system that rivals traditional manufacturing processes, both in speed and cost, and expands the applications for additive manufacturing.
ACCESS is representing the complete Markforged product line, which includes both metal and composite 3D printers.
"There's a lot of enthusiasm about our entry into the additive manufacturing market. It's a major industry advancement to be able to go from design to fully functional metal parts from a 3D print system. For us, that's certainly an exciting end-to-end manufacturing solution," said Joe Lagennusa, national sales manager at ACCESS Manufacturing Systems. "The existing CAM expertise of our entire team has really allowed for a smooth transition into additive. It's a great fit for us and for our customers."

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs
Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
