Deans have picked up another Blue Chip customer by providing a "different" solution in three weeks, where their customer was faced with a 12 week lead-time from the  specified extrusion. The part was designed as a machined extrusion, where Deans used a precision sand casting to provide a competitive solution, on less than a quarter of the lead-time.
