Is anything easy to learn at first? If it is, that’s an indicator you might be learning the right skill for you. Some mistakenly believe learning CNC programming is “easy.” It’s easy to get started and nail the basics. But just like anything else, you can spend a lifetime mastering all the skills and nuances […]
How long have you been a CNC machinist? Years? Decades? Are you considering just getting started? Every profession has its facts and misunderstandings. Today, we’re going to take a look at some of the exaggerations and machining myths out there. Here’s some you may have heard: If You’ve Had Success Running a Job Before, You […]
Do you use conventional machines in your personal shop or business? They do have some benefits, but so do CNC machines. If you’re considering adding a CNC machine to your production processes, we’ve put together some reasons why you may or may not want to:
With the revolutionary 5-Axis CNC cutting technology gaining momentum in the marketplace, many shops are transitioning to 5-Axis WaterJet CNC machining systems to satisfy a broad range of cutting needs. As the name suggests, 5-Axis CNC cutting allows the WaterJet machine to maneuver at five different axes simultaneously, which is a feature that has drastically changed the landscape of the CNC cutting marketplace. This feature differs from a more standard WaterJet device which moves along only 3 axes (X,Y,Z). 5-Axis technology gives machines the ability to create complex shapes in a single set up, ultimately enhancing production levels. This increase in efficiency is especially evident in waterjet machinery.
Think of your favorite athlete. While you rarely see them warming up on TV, every professional athlete has a warm-up routine they use. If they don’t, they risk injury, and they often don’t perform as well during the contest. Though not human, your CNC machine works the same way and needs a warm-up routine of […]
There are multiple factors that determine the precision of the overall waterjet stream. For quality at the cutting head only, these features should be considered for successful abrasive waterjet cutting:
In order to keep your WaterJet machine in peak operating condition here are a few tips on Waterjet maintenance that you can use:
Some CNC shops way outperform others. Common sense tells you that. But what’s hard to figure out is why. If you knew that, then you could start to modify your CNC shop so you become one of the leaders. And it might even inspire your thinking to the point where you find ways to innovate beyond your […]
