New Large 5-Axis Horizontal Machining Center to be Introduced at imX; Ideal for Large Aerospace Parts
Methods Machine Tools, Inc. will be introducing new and innovative machine tools, and a unique automation cell at imX-Interactive Manufacturing Experience event to be held in Las Vegas, September 12-14, 2011. Introductions include the Five-Axis Matsuura MAM72-100H Horizontal Machining Center, the largest five-axis model in the MAM72 Series and especially well-suited for large aerospace parts.
The High Performance FEELER FT-350 Boxway Turning Center will also be introduced at imX. The FT-350 features extensive design and engineering by Methods, designed to provide users unsurpassed performance and value. Methods will also demonstrate an automation cell including a KIWA KH-41 Horizontal Machining Center, a FEELER FTC-150 High Performance Turning Center and a Zeiss CMM.
Methods will also be featuring solutions for “Production on Demand”. To learn about the difference “Production on Demand” makes, attendees are invited to attend seminars in Learning Labs and also witness demonstrations on how techniques are applied. Methods will show how implementing automation, new strategies and technology will increase production, minimize cost and reduce set-up time, especially for small-lot production, completing parts in one set-up, multitasking and five-axis machining.
“Much of mass production has moved overseas. Our customers especially need fast, versatile solutions for complex, small-volume, high-precision jobs.” said Mr. Bryon Deysher, President & CEO, Methods Machine Tools, Inc. “Affordable, integrated solutions for the whole manufacturing process are key.” During hourly Learning Labs, Methods will partner with several of their suppliers to feature short-run production techniques during the following sessions:
