PRODUCTIVE CAPABILITY

Productive Capability means the entire range of sizes for each specific type of semi-finished product, which IPC has the capability of producing. IPC has decided to keep tolerances unilaterally positive in order to guarantee customers the compliance with demanded nominal values. On customers’ request, IPC is in a position to manufacture semi-finished products of size different from the standardized ones. In this case, their tolerances, as shown in this catalogue, are to be regarded as mere indications.

PROMPT AVAILABILITY

Prompt Availability means the entire range of sizes for each specific type of semi-finished product, which IPC stores in its warehouse for prompt delivery. Many years’ experience in this field has allowed to spot the most demanded sizes for each type of semi-finished product.
