Getting the most out of CNC machines and other production equipment often requires a careful analysis and refinement of the manufacturing process. Many CNC shops can benefit from working with an engineering services partner that has expertise, in-house resources and years of experience to apply to virtually any machining challenge.
Gosiger’s Engineering Services Division (ESD) has a staff of 22 process, mechanical design, controls, project and manufacturing engineers available to help manufacturers improve their shops’ performance 5 ways:
- Turnkey: When you acquire a machine tool from Gosiger, ESD can develop a complete manufacturing process plan including all required accessories and engineering labor, with guaranteed cycle time and part quality at a quoted price. This service allows you to continue doing what you do best while ESD maximizes the return on your investment in new equipment.
- Sharekey: In this process you work together with ESD to develop a complete manufacturing process in which you provide the machine tool, accessories and engineer labor to, again, achieve guaranteed cycle time and part quality.
- First Part Development: ESD will provide all accessories and engineering labor to develop a complete manufacturing process for your Gosiger-provided machine tool. This includes standard work holding and tooling solutions, a guaranteed completion date and a fixed price.
- Engineering Support: On a time-and-materials basis, ESD will work with you on- or off-site to tackle any engineering tasks necessary to optimize the efficiency of your manufacturing process.
- Controls: There are a number of ways ESD can help refine your manufacturing process by designing, building and integrating machine tool accessories. Some examples are:
- Servo doors
- BK Micro
- Custom APPs using the Okuma OSP control API
- Turret mounted load/unload devices
- Part exit conveyor systems
- Large tool pickup stations
