Aluminum Profile Notching: Checking Cutter Radius Against the Joint
An 8 mm end mill leaves a 4 mm internal radius. A square tab reaching the theoretical corner needs clearance or a revised mating shape.
View case study3+1 Axis CNC End Milling: Finding the Changeover Break-Even
The programmable route wins below 60 parts in this changeover model. Above that, the dedicated fixture’s shorter cycle pays back its setup time.
View case studyAluminum Window Transom End Milling: Joint Clearance Stack-Up
A nominal 0.35 mm transom clearance can range from 0.10 to 0.60 mm before finish and burrs, using the stated dimensional tolerances.
View case studyAluminium Double Mitre Saw: Checking Cut-Length Capability
A 0.12 mm mean shift brings modeled Cpk to 1.20 despite Cp of 2.00. Compare centering and repeatability before changing the process.
View case studyThree-Head Aluminum Cutting Saw: When Unloading Limits Output
In the pipelined example, a faster saw lifts expected good output from about 143 to 171 pieces per hour, then unloading sets the limit.
View case study45° Aluminum Mitre Saw: Estimating a Corner Gap Before Assembly
Two aligned 0.10° angle errors can open a 0.21 mm gap over a 60 mm mitre contact face in the idealized joint.
View case studyDouble Head Saw Cut Plan: Pairing 1,420 mm and 1,530 mm Members
Four members fit one 6,000 mm bar on paper with 54 mm left. The deciding constraint is the saw’s minimum safe tail grip.
View case studyCNC Travel vs. Workpiece Length: Reaching Both Ends of a 3.6 m Profile
Holes 80 mm from each end of a 3,600 mm part span 3,440 mm. A 3,300 mm feature envelope falls short by 140 mm.

Removing two 14-second re-clamps saves an estimated 84 minutes over 180 parts. Check whether head indexing offsets the gain.
