Lean Manufacturing Machining Cell ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],“ CCAT has provided access to tools that have helped us better understand how to make our value stream lean. Using their value stream mapping and factory modeling software, we were able to run “what if” scenarios on our future state. Our team was able to see the impact of batch sizes, buffer stock and asset utilization in a virtual environment before implementation. This has given us the validation we needed to move forward on our shared resource value stream. I highly recommend any manufacturing company to tap into the CCAT’s state of the art offerings.” ~ Brian J. Wilczynski, Continuous Improvement Manager GKN Aerospace – Manchester, CT

What is Machining Optimization? ,[object Object],CNC machines and their controllers have a lot of onboard intelligence But there’s a disconnect! Design Post Processor G/M Codes Download NC code 3D CAD Generate NC code CAM CNC Machine CAM Software Applies Constant Feedrates Why not variable feedrates depending on the depth of cut/material/tools used? Case for toolpath optimization?

Machining Implementation Scenario Design 3D CAD Integrate Optimization Tool with CAM! Improved NC Code #2 Advanced Machining Implementation Scenario Machining Game Changer Scenario Seeking companies for application to beta test process. Current participants include: NIST ■ NCDMM ■ TechSolve ■ CNC Software Soliciting participant recommendations from MAI Generate NC code CAM Download NC code Analysis of Process TWS CutPro NC Code #1 Additional Effort to Analyze Processes, with another piece of Software…..
