Using ONGAA CAM To Program Wood CNCs
Process change is both difficult and inevitable but it can also be positive and profitable. At the same time, change for ‘no good reason’ is generally negative and expensive. Deciding that a change would be beneficial should be done during a full functional evaluation.
The following ‘Time studies’ are great examples of objectively evaluating software to ‘simplify’ standard procedures in the manufacturing of machined wood components.
These studies show the importance of reviewing processes before and after the ‘intended change’ to ensure process changes are truly beneficial and don’t just ‘move’ the load and costs from one area to another.
