 We visited a local restaurant and participated in a Clue like murder mystery dinner, who killed Riga Mortis? It was a very well organized event.
The Death-by- Chocolate dessert was very rich to say the least.

BNA We replaced our 1994 machine with this new Myiano. Fits in the space, and runs great. It is always a challenge to move machines around the shop, but in the end, it will help our customers by reducing cycle time and reducing lead time. BNA -MSY We replaced our VERY FIRST 1983 CNC machine with this very capable machine that runs similar processes on both front and sub spindle at the same time. This machine is fast and furious. Check out this YouTube video from Citizen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7ADmK8sX0w It is manufacturing day, we will celebrate it making widgets!
 Our recent addition to the quality department is an Oasis. http://www.georgeproducts.com/
This vision center gives us a quick visual representation of certain dimensions reliably. We are integrating this machine as another tool in our inspection department to add computerized reporting capabilities that some customers may require. How do you deburr? And what is a burr anyway? Recently we upgraded our tumbling department to eliminate inevitable burrs on some parts. The two tumblers on the right are older technology, but still very helpful and we found we just needed to replace some equipment. The sPINer (picture on left) adds new technology to this department by using SS pins to deburr our customers' parts. Stay tuned for before and after pictures......
 Thanksgiving 2016 we purchased this new machine and have already put lots of hours on it! The small envelope reduces cycle time. One of our parts we improved cycle time by 31%!
 Recently we looked at my Great Grandfather's micrometer, and realized that it is 100 years old this year! Thanks to grandpa Claude, there are currently three successful machine shops running today.
 After much consideration, we bought and installed the FIRST PLG-42 in the US. We have completely customized this machine to suit our needs with spindle thru coolant in order to flush out as many chips as we can!
What were the differences between 2012 IMTS and 2014 - 3D printing had a bigger presence at the show this year. A 3D printed car sparked attention from not only the manufacturing sector but from the general public and media sources as well. http://www.imts.com/show/newsletter/insider/article.cfm?aid=1151 - I was not able to attend this years show, but another team member was able to step in my place and he said it was eye opening. This is truly an amazing show that inspires people in the field and is mystifying to those not in the manufacturing industry. Stay tuned for the General Manager's favorite pick!!!!!  |
