Subject: Saving 80% cycle time cutting titanium with iMachining 2D
Emil,
We visited our SolidCAM customer, NIV Haritot, to do an iMachining benchmark.
We cut the Part with iMachining 2D.
CNC machine: EQUITOP, with oil cooling.
Material: Titanium
The customer has 75 pieces to manufacture.
Before, he made the same parts in standard method, and work time was around 17 minutes.
iMachining 2D cycle time was 3.5 minutes (LEVEL3), without vibrations (in standard method he always had vibrations, because the axis of the machine is very weak).
Saving by iMachining: 80% cycle time
Total saving for 75 parts: 16 hr 52 min
Customer was completely excited and amazed – he got an offer for the iMachining module.
Best Regards,
Evgeny Lamez
