High-mix, low-volume production is big trend for manufacturers supplying Just-In-Time (JIT) customers. Due to this, there is a great deal of pressure to make the production process, even under high-mix, low-volume demands, as efficient as possible. Tim Jones, HMC product manager at Makino, discusses...
This webinar is focused on new technologies and new process methods for producing high temperature nickel alloy turbine blades and vanes. Using both real and simulated parts, Makino will demonstrate how their G series of 5 axis horizontal grinding and machining centers eliminate set up time, reduce WIP,...
With the significant increase in jet engine order backlogs and new fuel-efficiency requirements for engine designs, the production demand for high-temperature alloy parts is set to grow substantially. This is expected to put additional pressure on the supply chain and create demand for new manufacturing...
Is your company one of the many who are machining aluminum or non-ferrous die cast parts? If so, odds are that you are using general purpose horizontal / vertical machining centers or light duty drill tap centers to produce those parts. While these machines are traditional solutions, they are not ideally...
Proper financing of your capital equipment can make a big difference for your bottom line. Chris Lyle of Makino's Capital Services will discuss how to get the most out of your capital equipment investment in this seminar, making more dollars and sense from your investment in new technology.
Learn how to approach rib milling from a different perspective, as we share a machining technique that allows for single pass, full depth machining of deep, thin ribs. In addition, we would like to introduce new tooling technologies and machining techniques that permit direct mechanical drilling of tungsten...
EDM’ers have always been challenged to produce fine surface finishes in shorter and shorter lead times combined with low electrode wear. In this webinar, Makino will discuss new performance technologies and methods to improve your die or mold applications and produce consistent, fine finishes over...
When sifting through mounds of spec sheets for production vertical machining centers (VMCs), it’s easy to see how many manufacturers could become overwhelmed. The similarities in construction. Standardized, bare-bones feature sets. Comparable processing capabilities. So, what makes a VMC stand...
