We understand how difficult some parts can be to manufacture. Thats why we make it easy.
More and more pressure is being placed on outsourced manufacturing to deliver better parts faster at a lower cost to the buyer. That is why we recognize that multi-task machining capability is the future of CNC machining and have invested in three 5-Axis Vertical Milling Centers: A Matsuura MAM72-63V and two Matsuura MAM72-35Vs.
The Benefits of 5-Axis Machining:
Allows many new design possibilities in unibody structures
Structural formats previously only possible via welding, brazing or sheet metal techniques can be fabricated with greatly improved strength, longevity and stability
Improved throughput and faster turnaround
Automated pallet loading system enables near continuous 24-hour operation
Allows for the use of shorter tooling which minimizes tool failure and maximizes machine uptime
Eliminates need for most highly-customized tooling and fixtures
Reduction in setups and changeovers
High limit variable spindle speed and feed rate decreases cycle time
Enhanced precision
Reduction of setups and changeovers for each part, each representing an opportunity for error or loss of defined reference
Improved control in formation of curved or non-linear surfaces (vs. 3-axis)
Greater control of parallel and perpendicular dimensions over long formats and large surfaces
Ability to machine deep and/or narrow corners and cavities
Cost reduction
Eliminates need for most highly-customized tooling and fixtures
Reduction in setups and changeovers
Decrease in estimated scrap rates
Reduction of in-process inspections
Fewer opportunities for human and cumulative reference location errors
Reduced cycle times
Minimizes material costs
Energy-efficient
Smaller overall energy footprint resulting in a "greener" operation
Ability for "lights-out" machining on production work
