Machining Cells and Management Systems


 

Makino

To maximize the efficiency of their equipment, many manufacturing operations are considering machining cells and management systems. In this seminar, we will discuss the advantages and features of the Makino Machining Complex (MMC2) palletized part-delivery system and Makino's Advanced System (MAS) cell controller software. MMC2/MAS systems reduce setup time and automate your production, whether you have a low or high mix of part types. This seminar will explain how Makino’s MMC2/MAS systems can help you achieve greater productivity and reduce production costs.

Competing in today’s production environment, it is important to squeeze every penny out of your machine tool investment. In this Webinar, Makino will discuss how an automated pallet-handling system, such as Makino’s MMC2, can increase your equipment ROI.

With an automated system, most production situations reduce or eliminate the times when setup is holding up production, reduces the amount of labor needed to produce, simplifies part scheduling, and increases part throughput. This holds true for high-mix, low-volume and low-mix, high-volume applications.

We’ll discuss in detail Makino’s MMC2 system, Makino’s MAS cell controller software, and we’ll share case studies of companies that have implemented these systems.

Makino is a leader in this type of automation technology, with more than 20 years of experience producing machining complexes. We have a team of engineers dedicated to this type of advanced technology, that helps customers reduce cycle times and increase throughput every day.

Flash Player 8 or greater is required.
