Surviving the Install: The High-Stakes World of CNC Machine Setup | Lean Built - Manufacturing Freedom E85
Manage episode 470572359 series 3512552
Installing a new CNC machine isn’t for the faint of heart, and in this episode, we dive into the process of rigging and setting up the Matsuura MX420 PC10. From nerve-wracking moments with teetering machine parts to the surprising role color plays in a shop environment, Andrew and Jay share firsthand experiences from the world of machining.
Plus, we explore: why rigging mistakes have led to catastrophic crashes in the past, how a misaligned spindle caused major headaches, the power of getting the right technicians for the job, why choosing between a Brother and a Haas CNC is about more than just speed, insurance for machine downtime, using external expertise, and optimizing workflow tools like digital note-taking devices.
