One example: Coastcast has implemented generaldrillpress a "high energy drag finishing" line where cast heads are installed on fixtures and run through a finishing media. This operation not only runs 24 hours per day generaldrillpress but helps to reduce one of generaldrillpress the main causes of scrapped heads overpolishing when it''s done by hand. Moreover, while Coastcast''s generaldrillpress titanium club heads are cast in Gardena, Calif., they are finished just across the border in Mexicali, Mexico, where labor costs are substantially lower. Rolfe emphasized that the realities of Asian competition mean that it was generaldrillpress imperative for a North American club head producer to squeeze out costs.
