It is of the utmost significance in manufacturing to select the right technology for processing. Its impact extends to product quality, production costs, and operational capacity. From my experience as a purchasing manager over the last ten years, I understand all too well the need to serve the demands of this effectual triad. I have chosen for almost a decade now—to the extent that I serve fundamentally as an advocate for—to recommend CNC (Computer Numerical Control) milling as the premier processing technology for manufacturing. When compared to the many other kinds of processing options available, it has become clearer to me that CNC milling is...
It also has exceptional repeatability and constancy. Why is this feature so essential for large-scale production? Because the mass production of distinct items that we buy often requires long production runs. And when many parts need to be produced, those parts must be nearly indistinguishable from each other. Otherwise, defects or inconsistencies will lead to an unacceptable product and a higher scrap rate. And who wants to have consistent problems with product quality? Not me, and probably not you, either! Moreover, after-sales costs are the real problem, from the perspective of the balance sheet, not just for you and me as consumers but for the economy in general. In all these situations, CNC milling is a powerful ally.
The initial outlay for CNC milling machines tends to be high when compared to more basic manufacturing equipment. But in the long term, they can and should save a great deal of money. Their superior precision and accuracy yield very few rejects and reworks. When you consider what those two pathologies mean for the amount of raw material wasted, you start to see how much cost gets built into those basic manufacturing operations. Efficiency of operation is another area where the CNC milling machine delivers. Once a part family has been set up in the machine, the time it takes to produce each part is very short. And the amount of labor required to supervise and maintain the machine during the operation also tends to be very small.
In the end, technology keeps advancing, and with it, the performance of CNC milling machines keeps getting better and the price keeps coming down. So, these machines are now seen as totally necessary in quite a few areas of manufacturing, not just metalworking, where their numbers have tripled in ten years. And when you think about all the aforementioned pluses and what they mean in terms of choosing something reliable and strategically sound to purchase for your plants, well, what else is there to say? CNC milling machines definitely belong on your list.
