Gear Manufacturer Benefits from CAM Initiatives and Advanced Manufacturing Technology

摘要

Multiple CAM initiatives at Snyder Industries are improving safety, quality and productivity for parts ranging from 50 to 5,000 lbs. Turnaround is a big problem for many manufacturers today because customers in every industry want progressively faster deliveries of smaller part quantities without sacrificing quality or increased prices. This has been a particular challenge for Snyder Industries, Inc. because the parts they make are very large, ranging from 50 to 5,000 lbs. Enormous amounts of material are removed to arrive at the finished part. This can be time-consuming unless workflows and g processes are optimized for high productivity.
