Learn what it takes to achieve sub-micron accuracies in milling and EDM and how to choose the right tool for the micro job. Makino will discuss the V22 vertical machining center’s ability stay accurate under 2 microns in long-running jobs, the EDAC1 Ram EDM capable of producing inside corner radii...
In the competitive North American die and mold industry, where focus is placed on precision, efficiency, and productivity, people often forget about the importance of completing the die/mold process with accurate and reliable verification. If a mold-builder invests in high-precision machining, yet tests...
Aerospace parts come in all shapes and sizes. While manufacturing efficiency of large to mid size structural aerospace parts has been a focal point for Makino, smaller parts like leading edges also require process optimization. These smaller parts are often produced on general purpose machines or in...
Want a hot tip? You need to invest today in new technologies for titanium milling. The growth in titanium applications will exceed the current machining capacity. Will you be ready to take advantage of this demand? This webinar will introduce Makino’s new T2, a 5 axis horizontal machining center...
It is now practical to realize dramatic improvements in machine utilization rates from a traditional level of 30%, up to and exceeding 80%, even in the manufacture of low volume, high precision, discreet die or mold components. This can be achieved through a systematic approach of programming, integrated...
i-setup function was developed to assist the operator in workpiece set-up, alignment and coordinate system setting. In “normal operation”, this process has been (traditionally) manually achieved, is time consuming - reducing spindle utilization on expensive machine tools, requires a certain...
5XContinuous represents the “next-generation” of simultaneous 5-Axis machining. 5XContinuous blends the latest innovations in machine tool components with design and CAD/CAM software. These new technologies reduce programming as well as cycle and lead times...
