A new device could enable us to shorten delivery lead times by speeding up our CNC milling and turning speeds from 5,000 rpm to 36,000 rpm – all powered by the CNC machine’s own high-speed coolant.
The high-speed, high-precision jet spindle (called Typhoon) is currently being tested on one our existing CNC milling machines – and so far the results are impressive.
The shorter cycle times will reduce the lead time and help maintain our 100% on-time delivery to customers.
If the savings are consistent, we will shortly roll out the device to more milling machines.
