Hey folks. I Have what feels like a really stupid question: is it possible to reliably and consistently remove inserts AND replace them?
Here's some context: I machine tools at my shop, for about a year now. No real molding knowledge. Anyway, my boss brought me 16 very expensive parts that Somehow were molded with locking threaded inserts. Customer doesn't like locking inserts. So I've been tasked with removing and replacing these things. Any suggestions are welcome, along with derisive declarations that this is a futile endeavor. I expect them, because that's how I see it. Like I said, little experience, so I'd love to be proven wrong. Thanks.
