CNC lacks options? It may not be too late.
A recent CNC Cookbook survey included respondent comments about what they found lacking in their current CNC control. They mentioned inadequate work offsets, lack of web monitoring, limited tool data management and other shortcomings. FANUC Corp.'s Paul Webster explains why for some users, it may not be too late to easily add the capabilities they need.
4 Slide-NC Machine
Bihler says a typical client, such as a producer of metal fasteners, is able to phase out six existing machines for each newly installed 4 Slide-NC, while increasing productivity and performance by sixfold. The client could even halt plans for a facility expansion, thanks to a reduction in the overall footprint required, as one new 4 Slide-NC machine outperforms the productivity of six last-generation machines.
