The whole industry seems to be discussing this topic. Here's what Modern Machine Shop has to say about additives solving EDM surface finish problems. ADDITIVE SOLVES EDM SURFACE FINISH PROBLEM DDM and HQSFTM Makino’s...
Learn how Makino M-codes, control parameters and programming formats can work together to take out significant chunks of a part’s cycle time. In a fast paced review of your machine’s capabilities, we will analyze how parallel processing and special functions allow you to perform tool changes,...
One of the primary ingredients of an automated system is an efficient, reliable fixture. In this Webinar, Makino will discuss what you should look for in production workholding for automated cells and systems.
Optical Gaging Products (OGP) will describe a range of sensor technologies that can be used for dimensional measurement of machined parts. Multisensor measuring machines use a combination of sensors, each with particular strengths, to measure various features or dimensions for verification to design...
The recast layer and Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) left on workpiece surfaces by the EDM process can be a problem in aerospace applications. Advancements in machine tool and generator design, along with spark generation technology, can reduce or eliminate both recast and HAZ. This Webinar will address these...
In this Webinar, Makino discusses 5-axis machining platforms to further the efficiency of aluminum parts production. Difficult parts are discussed, like those with thin walls or with complex, dynamic considerations. "Many aerospace components are complex, with features such as thin walls that require...
