Addressing levels of automation in the turning world.
Jeff Tyl, Fabrication & Aftermarket Sales Manager at Murata Machinery USA discusses Automation, Not if, but When.
The level of automation that shops select ultimately dictates the degree of integration amongst their machining or turning processes. Do you generally follow the path of reacting to market conditions or proactively design your route with automation at your business’s core? Learn the pros and cons of various levels of turning automation from adding robots to existing lathes, to integrated turnkey gantry-driven systems and everything in between. It isn’t “IF” automation should be part of your strategy. The real question is “WHEN” do you make it part of your "project.”
