When it comes to advanced industrial CNC technologies, C.R Onsrud is the best among the rest. Recently, they have opened its doors on September 28, 2023, to manufacturers who have panel processing applications and are looking to improve their production.
“Automated material-handling systems strategically placed along a manufacturing cell or line can increase throughput tremendously,” said Brent Warren, Regional Sales Manager.“These systems are integrated as well as balanced to keep production continuously flowing. Speeding up some operations only to create bottlenecks downstream doesn’t help a production line or your bottom line.” Brent added further.
Over 30 prospective customers and distributors were invited to watch live, up-close demonstrations of high-speed panel applications in action.
In addition to the live demonstrations of nested, routed cabinet parts, simultaneous machining of 9 drill holes at once (using a drill block), and a variety of automation systems (infeed, outfeed, pusher/sweeper), the event included a tour of the factory and a software demonstration. Attendees also learned about integrated third-party labeling and storage and retrieval systems as well as had the opportunity to talk one-on-one to Onsrud CNC experts about their specific manufacturing challenges.
According to the company, automation can make a production line run continuously and efficiently, lower part costs to increase profit margins, and help boost production without adding labor costs. This is the second event the company has done in the last couple of months, and it hopes to offer more. “It gives us a great opportunity to connect with other manufacturers, to hear the challenges they’re facing, and to find a solution for them,” said Warren.
