“ Much of our product development is driven by pain points in the reloading process identified by our customers,” explains Anthony Parillo, Vice President and General Manager of the Mark 7 Division.“ We developed the product specifications for the Titan based on how our customers were using our Revolution machines, which was in specific configurations, processing, priming, and loading rather than one pass reloading. This led to adding stations and making the press double feed capable to increase the throughput in these configurations while at the same time lengthening the stroke of the machine to allow for larger calibers.”
“ We closely monitor our competitors and regularly review market data and industry reports to stay ahead,” adds Peter Lier, Director of R & D.“ Many of our R & D engineers and staff are passionate shooting sports enthusiasts, which gives us valuable first-hand insight. A significant number of our innovations stem from identifying ways to improve efficiency, precision, and overall user experience in reloading and other aspects of the sport. We also place strong emphasis on customer service feedback, using it both to enhance existing products and to inspire new ideas.”
To uphold these high standards of innovation, Lyman offers a wide range of machining capabilities to support complex, high-precision manufacturing from its 100,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility in Connecticut.
“ Our in-house CNC shop features 24 machines, from Swiss-style CNCs for small, high-tolerance parts to mill-turn machines, vertical mills, and precision lathes,” shares Stephen Kelly, Vice President of Operations.“ We can efficiently produce everything from intricate components to large parts with tight tolerances and superior finishes. This diverse mix of equipment allows us to efficiently manage our high-mix, low-volume production while minimizing lead times through in-house manufacturing.”
