Thuro Metal Products purchases 2 Wickman ACW 6-35s Multi-Spindle Machines and 2 Mori Seiki SY/700 Mill/Turn CNC machines to handle a variety of CNC machining needs.
Thuro continues to make significant investments to better serve our customers. In the last twelve months, we have added two additional machines to each division for a total of four. The benefit to our customers is better lead time and cost.
Key Takeaways: CNC Machining Innovations for Aerospace and Industrial Applications
- Recent equipment investments expand both capacity and production flexibility, allowing Thuro to better support high-volume automotive and industrial programs as well as complex aerospace and defense projects.
- Multi-spindle screw machines help reduce part costs and improve throughput, making them well suited for large production runs that require consistent quality and fast delivery.
- Mill/turn CNC technology enables complex components to be completed in a single setup, helping improve efficiency, accuracy, and production speed for precision-machined parts.
- Standardizing equipment across the facility supports faster service, improved reliability, reduced downtime, and more consistent manufacturing performance for customers.
Staying diverse but highly specialized and capable
Often, our Aerospace and Defense (A&D) clients provide us with high mix and lower volume part families to machine and assemble. Conversely, often, our Automotive and Industrial clients (A&I) require we have the capability to support lower mix, and higher volume part families. High volume requires machines which can have up to 14 tools at work simultaneously. Multiple Spindle machines for the right application are phenomenal in reducing component cost. They also enable us to deliver high quality parts in significant quantities, such as 100,000 per month from one machine, when you need them.
(Pictured above is one of two Wickman Multi-Spindle Screw Machines received in on April 26, 2024 to primarily serve our A&I Clients.)
For our A & I clients, whose components often have more complex geometry, machine tools which can make complex precision parts in one operation (done in one) are essential for us to meet our customers’ needs.
(Pictured above is our latest Mori-Seiki Mill/Turn Machine received in December of 2023. In November of 2024, we expect to receive our next Mori Seiki NL 2500 SY/700.)
Thuro is increasing service and lowering cost through Standardization.
The machine pictured above will be one of five of its type. Standardizing our machinery enables us to provide faster service at lower cost. Our efforts and investments in standardization are also dramatically reducing the age of our equipment, improving our reliability to our customers.
