EDM Cell Cuts Lead Time in Half, Improves Quality

Sodick's AG60L sinker EDM and an Erowa Robot Compact helped Ford Tool and Machining LLC cut lead time in half when it needed to reduce downtime and increase repeatability.

A Big-Picture View of Micromachining

Matrix Tooling makes injection molds for components that have features you cannot see.

Cell Controller Boosts Production Flexibility

By serving as the “brains” of a cell consisting of two machining centers and a work delivery system, cell control software from Erowa helps this manufacturer run lights-out 24/7 and achieve 90-percent spindle utilization.

Beyond Milling or Grinding

Ultrasonic machining opens new possibilities for NASA engineers using previously unmachinable materials.

How Do You Equip a Startup Micromachining Shop?

A response to a reader’s question includes a checklist for launching a small shop focused on micromachining.

Fully Automatic Manufacturing Cell

Erowa Technology offers its Robot Dynamic modular system, which can be extended in all directions at any time.

Find Your Speed Outside of Machining

This short-lead-time mold shop achieves its most significant time savings by looking outside the machining cycle. However, one of those elements outside the cycle—palletized setup—ultimately led to cycle time savings via five-axis machining.

Too Small To Touch

Hummingbird takes on machining work that is too small for most shops to handle. In fact, Hummingbird tries not to handle it either. To accurately machine the tiniest parts, this shop relies on processes that are as hands-off as possible.

A Micro Machine Design

This machine has no toolholders and no tombstone—but there is a camera. Here are details of a machining center designed for micromachining.

Compact Handling Facility Sticks To Basics

Shops consider a number of factors when justifying automated parts storage systems, including cost, required floor space and machining application.

HSM Technology Enables Mold Maker To Boost Productivity

Founded in 1959, Advance Mold and Manufacturing, Inc. (AM&M) is located in a temperature-controlled production facility in Manchester, Connecticut. The 30,000-square-foot building also houses Vision Technical Molding (VTM), a custom molding operation specializing in complex, tight-tolerance medical products. VTM also QC-samples AM&M's molds. Although the two sides are separate businesses, they are also partners, connected within the same building. AM&M occupies 18,000 square feet of the building and employs 65 people working two shifts, 6 days per week.

On The Path To Automation

Implementing an integrated tooling system proved to be this mold shop's first step toward automated operation of its electrical discharge machines and graphite mills. Today, the shop's robotic cells can run around the clock in an unattended mode.

Electrode Machining Set Free

These two shops used to mill EDM electrodes on their metal cutting machines, but they have now shifted the work to graphite machining centers. Both shops say the advantage isn’t just in the cycle time savings, it’s in the inefficiencies they can now overcome.

Can Palletizing Reduce Your Setup?

Locating and securing blanks and then unloading finished workpieces can take a significant amount of setup time. For some applications, palletizing workpieces off-line and then clamping them in common receivers can achieve dramatic setup reductions.
