Any device that has a number of moving parts needs service from time to time, and the more we use the device, the more often it needs attention. CNC machines are no exception. In fact, considering the conditions under which they operate, it’s not surprising that even the best designed and built machine tools require regular maintenance to prevent breakdowns.
All machinery requires routine maintenance.
The idea of “lights out” or unattended manufacturing is quite intriguing. The image of a factory turning out parts overnight with no human intervention seems like a perfect way to cut costs and boost productivity. And for those who do it successfully it does, indeed, fulfill that expectation. However the road to unattended manufacturing can be a bumpy one. That’s why manufacturers need a partner, like Gosiger, with the experience to help smooth the way.
