There is an undeniable soul to old-school engine building. You know the exact feel of a perfectly dialed-in micrometer, and your shop was built on decades of hard-earned craftsmanship. But let’s talk facts: when a customer brings in a high-dollar rotating assembly destined to live at 10,000+ RPMs, relying on the drifting calibration of a 40-year-old analog balancer is a …
The Next Evolution of Precision: Fentech Joins Forces with Custom Machine Works (CMW)
Look, when you’re building a race-winning power plant that’s going to live at 9,500 RPM, “close enough” isn’t in the vocabulary. If you don’t respect the physics of rotational mass, torsional vibration will flat-out destroy a bottom end. At Fentech, we’ve spent decades engineering the machines that engine builders trust to achieve sub-gram tolerances, freeing up parasitic horsepower and keeping …
