Clearing the Air

Car makers offer longer warrantees than they used to. I see CNC machining as the unsung hero in this. The life and performance of mechanical systems are so predictable because the machined components are so precise. Our cars are more reliable today because the process for every machined part has become so much more repeatable.

Something similar is true of air quality. The reason today’s demanding standards for engine emissions can even be contemplated is because of what machining is able to do—as this article describes.
