Simulation Software Helps Shop See, Prevent Costly Errors

摘要

Maximizing machine uptime, and therefore profitability, requires contract manufacturers to set up parts quickly and machine them accurately. But experiencing errors, or a spindle or tool crash, can quickly turn a profitable job into a loss. Kurt Manufacturing of Minneapolis, Minnesota, learned how to prevent these problems and balance speed with accuracy by using simulation software from Spring Technologies Inc. (Boston, Massachusetts) to verify a program's performance before machining.
