What is Computer Numerical Control or CNC?

Computer Numerical Control or CNC helps automate the manufacturing process by controlling the movements of the machine in the form of code.

The first machines or what we call manual machines were controlled manually by turning dials and levers while performing inspection periodically. In contrast on a CNC machine once the setup is completed only minor tweaks are needed over the course of production to maintain quality. In fact, making the complex of designs today on a manual machine are virtually impossible with finer tolerance and more complex geometries than ever before. The CNC code is generated using a CAD (Computer Aided Design) model and programmed using CAM (Computer Aided Machine) software. The output: code that controls the machine’s movement to make a part.

What is CNC Turning?

Turning is a process used in manufacturing where bars of material typically round bars are clamped in a chuck or collet and rotated at high speeds. The cutting tool is then fed into the rotating work piece and removes material as per the program. Turning Machines otherwise known as Lathes are one of the most effective ways to remove material. Parts typically well suited for our Lathe machines are:

• Shafts
• Couplings
• Brushings
• Lead screws

Why GJISPL?

Though Lathes have been around for centuries they have come a long way. With the latest and greatest in Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machinery you can be assured that GJISPL has the capabilities to complete parts large and small with absolute precision. With live tooling, we can complete milling operations along with turning in one operation saving you time and money.

What is CNC Milling?

Milling is the most common type of machinery found in today’s industry. At its basic fundamentals milling uses rotary cutters to remove material from the tool, which is fed through the work piece via one of the 3 common axis. Milling machines are very popular due to the flexibility of doing a variety of components.

CNC machines help ensure that most complex designs are not only made efficiently but also more accurately, as well assuring the customer the part is made. 5-axis machining allows the most intricate mechanical design with complex geometry made with minimal setup translating to savings for you the customer. The type of CNC machines we have are both vertical and horizontal machining centers with available 5-axis machining. Parts typically suited for CNC milling are:

• Housings
• Manifolds
• Brackets
• Heat sinks
• Plates

Why GJISPL?

While milling machines are the most common machine found in the common metal working shop with the GJISPL advantage we have the high efficiency CNC milling machining centers with 5-axis machining capabilities.

Production Part Approval Process / First Article Inspection Report

Production Part Approval Process and First Article Inspection Report or PPAP and FAIRS is a report sent either by the customer to be filled or a dimensional report supplied by GJISPL to make sure your first parts are exactly what you needed before going into production. Working with your quality department we can make sure all the documentation you need for your records are supplied along with the first delivery.

·      CMM

CMM or Coordinate Measuring Machine is a machine that measures geometry including geometric dimensions and tolerances (GD&T) by touching or probing points on a surface of a component. The benefit of a CMM over other measuring equipment is you are able to check features that are non-linear. Our customers have used our CMM services to ensure that the part design is to specification with the form of a CMM Report. That way you can be assured that the part you have meets the design you need.

·      COC

When required? GJISPL can supply the required documents when needed by the customer. COC or Certificate of Compliance or Certificate of Conformance is common documents that our customers need. To insure our customers have the confidence that the product meets all the specifications and quality requirements.

The Importance of Prototyping

Over the years, the term Prototyping has morphed into a very broad expression. We define a prototype simply as an early model built to check a concept. Throughout the design and product planning process, it is critical to provide a model representation that enables continuous learning for an overall better end-product.

Long before production commitment, prototypes provide the chance to interact with a product to confirm well-executed design detail and ensure optimal manufacturing strategy. Examining preliminary design details in an exceedingly more real-life form allows weaknesses to be identified, increases project efficiency, and helps deliver better end results.

Prototype Machining

In prototyping, we usually work closely together with your designers and engineers to provide a small number of machined parts – sometimes even only one. At this critical stage of product realization, it’s essential to accommodate every detail correctly. Therefore, irrespective of the scale or complexity of your parts, we spare no effort to manufacture as per the specifications and submit for your inspection and approval.

Based on our customized parts manufacturing experience for over 40 years, we are proud to be able to provide a full set of prototyping services, to fulfill your delivery deadline with no sacrifices with product quality.
