Closed-Door Manufacturing

Full Service: Design, selection, and procurement of tools and workholding

Closed-door manufacturing is the way of the future. Processes that minimize human interaction can be more robust and deterministic. We consider work holding, tooling, and probing solutions so that our processes can be closed-door when possible.

Some techniques we employ are as follows:

• Cut-measure-cut probing solutions to ensure finish cuts split the target tolerance band

• Tool touch off cycles to ensure tools are at simulated lengths to protect against collisions

• Strategic tool breakage detection

• Strategic material removal to encourage chip evacuation and displacement

• Preliminary probing for stock distribution and proper workpiece clamping

• WSEC (Workpiece Setting Error Compensation)

• Others
