For this contract manufacturer, having myriad machining and manufacturing capabilities in-house enables it to deliver assemblies to customers faster and with higher quality.
In a highly competitive global market, finding ways to manufacture domestically and profitably is an ongoing challenge. This Massachusetts shop has found a way using CNC multi-spindles.
Out-of-round turning can be an efficient alternative to profile milling and grinding for polygon couplings that could replace traditional spline connections in automotive transmissions.
Upon his retirement, Greg Knight reflects on his cherished relationships as well as the challenges he has faced during his career in manufacturing.
Rotary transfer machining is one proven solution for high volume machining. Today’s CNC rotary transfer machines provide more than “set it and forget it” production; they are flexible enough for high mix and low volume production demands.
The impact computer technology has had on machine tools has changed all areas of machining and manufacturing.
Quick-change polyurethane guide channels allow for quiet operation at high RPM cutting.
There are thousands of cam-driven multi-spindles out in the field producing millions of parts 24 hours a day. And while there may always be a place for these machines when high volumes of relatively loose-tolerance parts are required, the tide is turning. CNC multi-spindles have emerged as a viable alternative now.
