Increase Machining Flexibility & Profitability with Tool Automation

What and Why of Cutting Tool Automation

Do your machining operations have high tool consumption? How to share tools between machines? How to avoid tool-related machine stops?

If cutting tools play a major role in your machining, watch our cutting tool automaton webinar where we explain how manufacturers can utilize tool automation to increase spindle uptimes, optimize tool-related investments, and ensure high manufacturing quality with high part mix, complex part geometries and hard materials. In addition to 30-minute webinar presentation, you can watch a Q&A round answering some common questions manufacturers have regarding tool automation.

  • How to build good foundation for applying tool automation – the best tool management practices for any machining organization
  • How to eliminate tool-related errors causing scrap, rework and spindle breaks
  • Large tool magazines vs tool automation – pros and cons
  • Tool automation and the associated philosophy – how do tool automation systems work
  • Calculating ROI – what kind of productivity increases and tool-related savings you can get and how to calculate the pay-off.
  • Companies that require flexibility in their milling machining operations – most typically companies with high part mix or complex part geometries, as well as companies machining high-precision parts of hard materials. It does not matter whether your machine tools are automated or not!
  • Students, consultants and researchers – those interested to learn more on how the value is created with flexible tool automation and how the cutting tool processes can be developed.
