Product cost reduction through process integration and automation!

1. Even if we try to perform all processes in-house, there is no more space to install new processing equipment, and there are no operators.
    
2. Currently, the purchased materials are subjected to two processes, drilling and deburring, but each process is labor intensive, using a manual machine.

In order to increase the added value of the customer's product, we proposed incorporating all the processes, including the turning process, which had been outsourced previously, into one machine.
As a result, significant reduction in material cost has been achieved.

In addition, it takes up less space than the previous production equipment used for two processes. Moreover, with all the processes integrated into one machine, product management has become much easier.

For multi-process machining operations, which require a large number of cutting tools, the three-turret type design allows up to 54 cutting tools to be mounted on one machine.

Conventionally, each process was performed with a manual machine, taking a lot of manpower. By using our gantry loader with the machine, however, unmanned operation is now possible for a certain period of time.

We have a wide range of peripheral equipment such as loading/unloading devices and automatic gauge unit, so we can propose the machine specifications that can most suitably meet the customer's request.

The product in the case study introduced here is the In-line Twin Spindle CNC Turning Center ”MT200”
