"In today's globally competitive manufacturing environment, every step matters in the production process," said a Makino spokesperson. "Automation and engineering services can help companies get the most of out their investments with adaptive solutions for a variety of production demands." For example, serial processing is a single-process flow, with each machine performing a specific operation. Serial processing can reduce the number of process streams, making it easier to find the source of an error and quickly address any issues.
In a cell, Makino's two J3 horizontal machining centers (HMCs) have demonstrated the serial processing of repetitive, high-volume parts. The high-speed J3, with its stacked axes design, enables it to be easily integrated into a variety of automation concepts. "It offers accuracy and agility, achieving 10% or more reduction in machining times versus other traditional modern machining centers," said a company spokesperson. This is further enhanced when put into an automation cell.
"When performing high-volume parts manufacturing and numerous forms of automation and parts transfer, manufacturers need equipment that can keep pace," said the spokesperson. "The high-speed, high-production HMC with stacked axes design is ideal for these types of operations, especially when it comes to small automotive components and die-cast aluminum parts. The J3's high-speed spindle and quick axis acceleration/deceleration characteristics help reduce overall costs by providing faster machining. Non-cutting time is further reduced due to fast, automatic tool changes and quick table index times. The J3 HMC can decrease the number of machines needed and reduce machine tool costs to achieve a given production requirement."
