We are busy cutting and tapping 200mm MakerBeamXL black anodised. We are doing a better job of keeping our beams within the norm. The newly cut beams are cut to ISO 2768-m.

We were out of stock for the 200mm MakerBeamXL black anodised and only recently started to cut and tap our own beams. To improve our quality control we use a precision surface plate, an engineer try square and a 500mm caliper. With these items we trust to be able to ship out accurate cut lengths rather than pretty good cut lengths.

We were out of stock for the 200mm MakerBeamXL black anodised and only recently started to cut and tap our own beams. We focused on getting the cuts done and shipping the beams because of demand. Quality control got squashed somewhere in between. A few customers have come forward showing us beams that are not up to par and should not have been shipped. They will receive (a) new set(s) of beams. Right now we are focusing on improvement of our quality control.

As mentioned we were surprised by the sudden influx in demand for the 200mm MakerBeamXL black anodised. Last Thursday April 9 we were sold out. New stock would come in June. A long wait. So we decided to have some beams cut at a different facility nearby and buy our own machinery for cutting and tapping. Normally our beams are cut and packed somewhere else. We thought we would be able to cater our customers and as a bonus we would finally be able to offer customers custom cut lengths at the end of this Voron ride.

A few days on and now we can say we underestimated the whole process and we are sorry to say that there are customers who are the unfortunate witnesses of our learning curve.
