A manufacturing company in Northeast Ohio has successfully enhanced its aluminum processing capabilities by adopting a bridge-style vertical machining center. This transition was driven by challenges in chip control and stability, factors that were previously limiting their productivity.
The implementation of the bridge-style vertical has provided the necessary rigidity for more aggressive cutting techniques. Additionally, an improved coolant washdown system was introduced, effectively ensuring efficient chip removal, thereby protecting both tools and parts.
This advancement in machinery has bolstered the company’s confidence, resulting in increased throughput. Moreover, the BVM system’s flexible design offers the potential for automation integration in the future, ensuring long-term viability without the need for platform changes.
Joe K., a representative from the company, expressed appreciation for the enhanced productivity and forward-looking capabilities that the new vertical machining center brings to their operations.
Ellison Technologies, known for providing cutting-edge solutions in the manufacturing industry, facilitated this upgrade. The company continues to support manufacturers with innovative machinery that enhances efficiency and productivity, further cementing their position as a key player in the industrial sector.
