Optimizing Manufacturing Cycle Times Through Advanced Tooling
Manufacturers of machining centers continuously strive to enhance their machines, aiming to reduce part cycle times. This is in response to the pressing demand from workshop and component production clients, who are influenced by their own customers' push for reduced costs per component.
While selecting a high-speed machining center can significantly boost productivity and lower part costs, the tooling employed can also play a pivotal role. By leveraging cutting-edge, purpose-built proprietary tooling, the efficiency of horizontal machining can be elevated. Such tooling can offer immense versatility, consolidating numerous machining steps, particularly in component manufacturing.
Makino, a leader in advanced machining technology, advocates the use of multifunctional and purpose-specific tools, such as their SmartTools line. These patented tools not only trim down cycle times but also curtail production costs, leading to savings.
For instance, there are specialized tools tailored for engine block machining that can minimize initial capital outlay and significantly reduce processing time. Cylinder bores, for example, can be refined and honed with a precision-driven boring system that autonomously adjusts for tool wear or heat-related distortions, ensuring unparalleled consistency.
