Don’t miss your chance to learn about how to increase Swiss parts’ speeds by a joining Production Machining and your colleagues for a free webinar hosted by INDEX Corp.’s Application Engineer Manager Tyler Economan on Wednesday, Sept. 20 at 2 p.m. EDT Register now before it’s too late.
A large percentage of small parts are being produced on sliding headstock CNC lathes simply because that is where manufacturers have capacity. Many of these small parts do not need to be machined in this fashion. output, however, could be increased four to six times and materials costs could be decreased while doing so by running these parts on a CNC multi-spindle lathe.
The webinar topics include:
- CNC multi-spindle machines versus a Swiss CNC
- Alternate ways to produce parts
- The impact productivity has on an overall investment
- How smaller lot sizes can be run with full CNC capability
