Anyone can find a CNC machining company that will provide them with the machine they want to purchase. A better approach to CNC machining is taking the time to find a partner that will not only educate you on the latest in manufacturing practices, but will offer solutions to your fabrication process that were previously unknown.
If you have ever worked with a "knee-style" milling center you will appreciate the advantages of upgrading to a vertical machining center. With a vertical machining center you can perform the same operations with reduced time per part and increased complexity with the right add-ons. Not sure if a Vertical Machining Center is right for your operations? Schedule an equipment consultation with a Gosiger Expert.
Whether you are producing machine screws, copper fittings, or rivets and fasteners you need high precision with minimal operator assistance. A swiss-style lathe is required to achieve this when machining high-volume components. A Swiss-style lathe or Swiss screw machine is vital to meet the volume and quality expected in today’s small fabrication markets.
Screw machining requires some of the tightest tolerances and highest volumes, of most machining practices. Improving on cam driven technology, a CNC Swiss-style lathe can perform even the most complex machining with short set-up time. This provides a very cost effective option when high quality is a chief concern for your shop.
With today's fast paced manufacturing it may seem as if the "big boys" in CNC machining have made it more difficult for smaller shops to remain competitive. This is not true; factory automation is the key. Factory automation by Gosiger can keep you competitive and make it possible to bid on larger jobs with confidence.
Since its founding in 1922, Gosiger has aligned with the most innovative CNC manufacturers in the world. Included in this short list of brands, representing the finest names in CNC machining is Hardinge. Hardinge manufacturers an impressive line of vertical machining centers. Here are the specifications to Hardinge’s vertical machining centers.
An essential part of a practical CNC grinding operation is an automatic wheel dressing system. Harder materials such as hardened tool steel and carbide require diamond wheels. Most solutions for dealing with diamond-wheel corner breakdown are expensive or even clumsy; limiting the use of CNC surface grinding on carbide work pieces. Amada Wasino’s MRD-80 diamond wheel dresser solves many of these CNC grinder challenges.
Gosiger understands that reliable and innovative products are crucial to being a successful manufacturing business. With that understanding, Gosiger has always aligned itself with top CNC milling machine brands in the tooling and fabrication industry. Bumotec, Okuma, and Nomura are all well-known brands that are recognized for their quality craftsmanship and modernism in the CNC milling machine industry.
As a leading provider of CNC machining products, Gosiger is committed to supplying the best, most innovative brands in the industry. For customers that require greater range of motion and flexibility for machining their products, a quality 5-axis CNC machine is the solution. 5-axis machining involves machining the part on three planes – X, Y, and Z – and rotating the piece in order to achieve the desired result.
Bridgeport by Hardinge Inc., is a leading manufacturer and provider of a wide range of highly reliable turning, milling, grinding, and work-holding solutions. One of the products they specialize in is 5-axis CNC machines. Their latest generation of XR-Series 5-axis vertical machining centers promises to bring instant and positive results to your parts creation and manufacturing. The machines unrivalled technology, paired with unwavering commitment to improving the customers’ productivity and business performance contribute to the 5-axis CNC machine’s success.
CNC machine technology is ever-changing; as evidenced by the constant innovation and the number of new product introductions. These technology gains are driven by ongoing customer demands for better, faster and cheaper production solutions. Entry or even just competition in the global manufacturing environment demands exacting precision from one-off part runs to mass-produced widgets of every conceivable configuration. Further, the production time allotted from start to finished product is now breathtakingly short.
Manufacturers often begin and end their research with a VMC (vertical machining center). The VMC meets the requirements for a wide range of manufacturing processes. Often thought of as an entry level CNC machine, it offers a great return on investment in terms of speed and precision. Cost reduction, the never-ending battle, and minimizing lead-times while maximizing throughput are vital in today’s highly competitive manufacturing environment. A high-performance VMC can deliver all of these things.
VMCs are ideal for generally smaller parts that require tight tolerances and good finishes.
