When is horizontal milling preferred over other forms of machining metal parts? Costs, time, size and materials all play a part in selecting horizontal milling as the primary machining process. Consider the following points before deciding on the best manufacturing process. Multi-Axis Machining: Horizontal milling allows for multiple sides of a workpiece to be… Read more »
Accuracy is vital when manufacturing manifolds for assembly into automotive engines, hydraulic systems, pneumatic systems, medical devices and other fluid and air delivery systems. Machining manifolds requires specialized techniques and equipment to produce precise parts requiring high tolerances. Nolte Precise Manufacturing uses the CNC horizontal machines that revolutionized the manifold machining process and ultimately transformed… Read more »
The last thing manufacturers want to think about when making complex products with many intricate parts is how they will manage the inventory required to build their final assemblies. Vendor-managed inventory (VMI) becomes an essential benefit when producing complex machine assemblies. For decades machine shops have offered managed inventory to simplify the manufacturing and assembly… Read more »
What are some benefits of using a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) ? Machining complex CNC Swiss screw machine turned parts and CNC vertical and horizontal milled parts to tighter tolerances improves as manufacturing technology advances. Computerized processing and metrology allow for more complex parts and faster manufacturing. When contract manufacturing job shops are required to… Read more »
