2020 Machine Shop Engineering & Technology and Cost Reduction News - Information for Industrial Engineering

Cost Reduction through time reduction in machine effort. Productivity improvement of all other inputs. 

Machine shop methods improvement.

Engineering/Technology - Process/Operation Interface Industrial Engineering


IGNORANT Industrial Engineering fails the the companies and destroys the profession. Say NO to it.

Industrial engineering done without knowledge of latest engineering and technical developments is a waste activity.


Up-to-date knowledge, deep process information, creativity and cooperation of all in the organization are required for effective process changes that give more productivity and profits.

Industrial engineers have to regularly get news regarding engineering and technology developments and assess their utility for productivity/performance improvement of processes in their organization.

Where utility is there, they have to do detailed investigation and incorporate the new technology element in their process and increase the performance. This is continuous engineering improvement of the process and is the responsibility of the industrial engineer. When the engineering change is carried out the design group will get acquainted with the new technology elements and will take steps to use it appropriately in their new design and major redesign projects.  Engineering - Industrial Engineering is a cumulative process. Each contributing their share in the design of products and processes and the knowledge is cumulated.

Say YES to Knowledge Based Industrial Engineering. 

Use recent developments in engineering & technologies in process improvement for productivity.

Cost Effective  automated wastewater treatment system for Machine Shops


Automated wastewater treatment can help to streamline production, usually with a one-step process, while lowering costs at metal industry facilities.
An automated system can eliminate the need to monitor equipment in person while complying with EPA and locally mandated requirements. Such systems separate suspended solids, emulsified oil and heavy metals, and encapsulate the contaminants, producing an easily de-waterable sludge in minutes, according to metal industry consultants at Sabo Industrial Corp., a New York-based manufacturer, distributor and integrator of industrial waste-treatment equipment. 

The water typically is then separated using a de-watering table or bag filters before it is discharged into sewer systems or further filtered for re-use as process water. Other de-watering options include using a filter press or rotary drum vacuum. The resulting solids are non-leachable and are considered non-hazardous, so will pass all required testing.

Virtual Machining, AM, and Automation in CAD/CAM Suite

Updates to OPEN MIND's hyperMILL® CAD/CAM software suite bring a range of user-friendly enhancements and new machining strategies for accurate, efficient 3D and five-axis machining.

High Quality Retention Knobs
In CNC milling machines, retention knobs are used with tapered tool holders to engage drawbars that hold the tool holder firmly to the spindle. A tapered tool holder is threaded, to accept the retention knob, but any improper seating of V-flange toolholders causes run-out and vibration that reduces the precision of the machining effort, while reducing tool and spindle life. It results in lost productivity. At higher RPMs (in excess of 20,000 RPMs), accurate and secure seating of tapered toolholders in the spindle (with the help of the retention knob) is even more critical.  T.J. Davies is an Ohio manufacturer of high-quality retention knobs that uses certified 86L20 and 9310 steel drawn in the United States.

An Engineer's Guide to the Process of 5-Axis Machining
https://interestingengineering.com/the-mechanical-engineers-guide-to-5-axis-machining
Feb 22, 2020 - Machining with 5-axis cutters allows users to cut costs on machining time.


Machining Moves To Modernize With Industry 4.0
Lasers and traditional machining are advancing and implementing Industry 4.0 features, requiring expanded skill sets.
MPO - Medical Process Outsourcing
Jan 29, 2020 - Faster speed also translates to cleaner cutting, reducing secondary steps required. This allows manufacturers to save costs and get products to market faster. 

Orthopedic implants involve several machines or computer numerical control (CNC) cutting processes, including grinding. Machining operations on a knee implant can include roughing, tray base roughing/finishing, chamfer milling, T-slot undercut machining, wall finishing/chamfering, and undercut deburring. Two process technologies that have been cornerstones for medical component manufacturers are five-axis machining and Swiss turning. Providien Machining and Metals a Nakamura turn/mill work center dual turret/dual spindle machine gives us the ability to reduce cycle times on existing parts and reduce the number of setups for the machining process, as the machine can make complete parts (whereas before, these parts had multiple setups across multiple machines). We also recently invested in an automated pallet system for our Makino horizontal mills. The 24 available pallet locations give us the ability to run longer periods lights out.

Citizen L220 is the latest generation of the company’s L-series lathes. The sliding headstock type automatic CNC lathe features full servo axes and other advanced technologies to enable faster CNC machining operations while reducing non-cutting idle time. The L220 series can be converted between guide bushing and non-guide bushing mode to achieve a reduction in running costs.

 Today, many machine shops are equipped with computer-aided manufacturing software. To make them Industry 4.0 compatible, those computers are to be given  internet connectivity to download new programs or specifications.
