turing companies are in a situation that is both promising and troubling. They’re looking for employees, which is great news when so many people are out of work. The problem — the prospective employees don’t have the skills the companies need.

Those skills are Computer Numerical Control Side (CNC) programming and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) and CNC machine set up and operation. The Huron Area Technical Center (HATC) and The Gemini Group are partnering to bring back the HATC’s manufacturing program, which will focus on CNC and CAM skills so today’s students can be tomorrow’s CNC machinists at local factories.

The manufacturing program is an add-on to the Architecture, Engineering and Design (AED) program, which is instructed by Gary Mills.

“Manufacturing is alive and well right now,” said Jeff Rochefort, who is leading the HATC CNC project. He’s also on the advisory board for the Architecture, Engineering, Design and Manufacturing program. ”We had some tough years in 2008 and 2009, but things are going much better now.”

Years ago, HATC had a separate metal machining program that had students working on manual lathes, mills

and other manually-run machines. This type of machinery was prevalent at local factories at that time.

In 2005-06, Rochefort was working for the HATC’s manufacturing program, when most of the machines were manual. At that time, there were only two CNC machines.

The following school year, Rochefort had left the HATC and the manufacturing program kept going, but the CNC equipment was not used.

In 2007-08, the manufacturing program ended and most of the manual equipment was sold. However, the CNC machines stayed.

“Gary Mills had the foresight to keep the CNCs,” Rochefort said.

Today, many local factories are filled with CNC machines, which replaced many of the manual machines. The Gemini Group realized the need local manufacturers had for people with CNC-related skills, so a proposal was presented to HATC Principal Clark Brock. The proposal was written by Rochefort and John Moll, chief executive officer of the Gemini Group.

The proposal outlined what Gemini would provide and what the HATC would provide. One of the items Gemini is providing is Rochefort as a part-time instructor. Rochefort has worked with CNC machining for many years.

“I am driven to teach others CNC because there is so much of it now these days,” Rochefort said. “My greatest thrill is watching the light turn on with students. It is also cool to observe their excitement as the first part they cut is complete, and now they can take it home to show (their family).”

When students enter the AED program, they have a choice of whether to take the CNC technology portion. Before they begin working with CNC machines, though, they need to fulfill prerequisites. They need to learn a computer-aided design (CAD) program, along with blueprint reading, scale reading, shop math and other elements that apply to CNC machining.

The HATC has three desktop CNC milling machines and one desktop CNC lathe.

“These CNC machines are called concept machines,” Rochefort said. “The idea is to teach the concept of machining in a classroom environment. If the program is successful, we would like to eventually have real pieces of equipment for students to train on.”

Rochefort said when students leave the manufacturing portion of the AED program, they won’t be a CNC machinist, but they’ll know how to program and set up a CNC machine.

Students in this class will learn the standard Fanuc G-Code, which is a code telling the CNC machine tool what type of action to perform. This is the most popular code used in the industry, Rochefort said.

Currently, one student is in the CNC program and two are finishing the prerequisites. While there aren’t many students in the CNC program now, Rochefort said this is because this part of the AED program was not offered at the time students signed up for classes.

“We will see what happens with the enrollment for the fall 2012 school year,” he said.

One student currently in the program is Jay Kimball, a student at the new Ascent High School in Bad Axe. He’s currently learning blueprint reading. Not only is he learning it, he’s teaching it to someone else — his mother, who works at Huron Casting, Inc. in Pigeon. Learning blueprint reading will help his mother in her job, he said.

Kimball said it was a mutual decision between him and his mother to have him teach her what he’s learning in class.

“I thought it was funny at first,” he said.

Kimball said his concern was that he wouldn’t grasp the concepts well enough in class in order to be able to effectively teach his mother. That’s not a concern any longer, though.

“(Rochefort) explains things thoroughly,” he said.

Kimball said the class has sharpened his math skills. He said what he’s learning in the program can help him in a variety of jobs, such as architecture, construction and, of course, manufacturing.

Kimball, who hopes to work at Huron Casting, Inc. after high school, plans to get a bachelor’s degree someday.

Rochefort said while the Gemini Group is the company partnering with the HATC, that doesn’t mean Gemini is training all of the students in the manufacturing program to come work for Gemini. Students can choose what they want to do with their experience. They can work for a manufacturing company right out of high school, they can go on to obtain a two-year or four-year degree before going to work or they can work while earning a degree. The choice is theirs.

“Whichever the case, this class will teach them real employable skills,” Rochefort said. “Every company will have to teach them the unique skills (the company) wants, but (the students) will have the core knowledge.”

He said his fellow advisory board members are very happy to have the manufacturing program brought back and to have the program focus on CNC technology.

“They’re very excited to see this has not been left abandoned,” he said.

As stated in the proposal, some of the goals for the CNC program are to provide internships to one or more local facilities (if opportunities exist), provide plant tours to one or more facilities to make the experience more real, add robotics and computer-integrated manufacturing to the curriculum and install a robot at the HATC, add more advanced machines to the curriculum, provide job interview experiences and work with Delta College or other area colleges on the transferring of credits from the CNC program to the college’s program so students can earn an associate’s degree. Another goal is to have night classes for adults who wish to learn about CNC technology.

“We’ve had some interest from adults already,” Brock said. “There’s a large need to retrain displaced workers and those who want to advance in their current jobs.”

He said this will help keep today’s working adults employed in the Thumb, so they don’t have to move.

Brock said he was very excited about the Gemini Group’s proposal to bring back the manufacturing program and to make it current to meet manufacturer’s needs.

“We thought it was a wonderful opportunity for our students,” he said. “We didn’t have enough students to justify hiring a teacher and restarting the manufacturing program, but with a business backup, it makes it much more appealing. We always look forward to business partnerships that can help the future workforce.”

Brock said while not all students will go from the manufacturing program right into a job, it’s great to be able to train students to do so. Perhaps the more exciting aspect is being able to train students for jobs that are right in their backyard, so even if they do go to college, they can return to the Thumb for a job.

“Let’s keep our kids at home so they don’t have to go someplace else,” he said.

The recent evolution of the Edgecam CNC software means manufacturers can achieve more machining in the same production time.

Edgecam users from around the UK saw live machining demonstrations at Mazak’s European Technology Centre, showing how a revolutionary new Waveform Roughing Strategy in Edgecam 2012 R1 cuts cycle time from 63 minutes to just 18 minutes, and improves the metal removal rate from 30cm3 per minute to 135cm3 per minute.

The demonstrations were part of the “Innovation For Productivity” event, run in partnership between Mazak, Sandvik Coromant, CG Tech Vericut, 3Dconnexion and Edgecam.

Sandvik’s Paul Williams told the 75 delegates that Britain’s manufacturing sector is growing through its commitment to small batch runs of high added value products. “This needs highly sophisticated advanced machine tools, and because of the higher costs involved, manufacturers must increase productivity and throughput to achieve more machining in the same production time.”

He said that using machines with more tools, in conjunction with Edgecam, reduced cycle times and optimised metal removal rates.

Edgecam engineer Mike O’Neill said the Waveform Roughing Strategy was the software’s biggest innovation for several years and is now included in the standard license, giving better machining for all users. As well as the Waveform’s constant tool load path and smooth toolpath pattern improving the metal removal rate, it also gives greater stability, more precise machining and improved tool life. In addition, the improved surface finish potentially eliminates secondary cutting cycles.

He said Edgecam’s recent evolution has also led to multi-threading toolpaths and background processing, as well as the 5-axis cycle being upgraded to 64-bit. “It’s now like driving a car in 6th gear instead of 4th. In particular, background processing frees the operator to undertake other tasks and has dramatically reduced downtime.”

Rob Lightfoot, of CG Tech Vericut, which has a seamless interface with Edgecam to verify NC code before it is transferred to the machine, said the software ensured manufacturers got prototypes right first time every time, overcoming issues of proof parts costing too much in terms of setting up, scrap, broken cutters, wasted program time and machine downtime.

Edgecam’s UK Technical Sales Manager Phil Gill who organised the event, said it demonstrated the partnership between Mazak, Sandvik, Vericut, 3Dconnexion and Edgecam to make manufacturers more productive through the latest innovations in machines, machine tools and software.

TW Ward has complete a massive machine relocation project – moving 67 machines without disrupting production for a Middle East oil and gas specialist.

In total, the project involved 38 CNC machines and 12 manual machines - moved from Dubai to Abu Dhabi – plus 15 CNC and two manual machines from North America to the UAE

The ability to re-locate a critical manufacturing plant without severely affecting production output is no mean feat. Especially when, as part of the move, a number of large-capacity machines had to be taken out of action and totally re-engineered.

But that was the project that confronted Andy Simpson, General Manager at Weatherford Manufacturing & Services in the United Arab Emirates, part of the leading global network specialist supplier of components and services for the world’s oil and gas industry.

He spent more than a year ‘‘marshalling’ the scheme – and, he says, the experience and expertise of the engineering and service team from T W Ward CNC Machinery of Sheffield proved a key ally in the five-month campaign to relocate Weatherford’s Dubai plant to Abu Dhabi.

For its part of the project, T W Ward engineers not only carried out the transfer and re-commissioning of 67 machines from sites in Dubai and the United States to Abu Dhabi, but they also undertook the refurbishment and repair of two large Butler Elgamill bed-type machining centres. And one of the company’s senior engineering technicians remained onsite for the duration of the project as the ‘on the ground general’. He was complemented by a squad of service engineers flown in from Sheffield, and T W Ward also sent engineers from its South Yorkshire base to North America to de-commission 17 machines then expertly re-commission them upon their arrival in the Middle East.

In total, the project involved 38 CNC machines and 12 manual machines - moved from Dubai to Abu Dhabi – plus 15 CNC and two manual machines from North America to the UAE. The tally included a range of small to large-capacity lathes, machining centres and milling machines (some with bed capacities up to eight-ten metres).

Operating in over 100 countries and employing more than 50, 000 people worldwide, Weatherford is one of the largest global providers of advanced products and services that span the drilling, evaluation, completion, production and intervention cycles of oil and natural gas wells. Its business is focused on a number of core service lines – artificial lift, drilling services, well construction, drilling tools, completion, wireline, re-entry and finishing, stimulation and chemicals, integrated drilling, and pipeline and specialist services.

Now located in the Industrial City of Abu Dhabi, Weatherford’s Abu Dhabi Manufacturing Facility manufactures a range of products that support its business demands in the Middle East and North Africa, and are supplied globally to oil and gas sector customers.

Andy Simpson explains the reason for the move: “In short, we decided to relocate to be closer to our customers. Abu Dhabi has a larger oil and gas industry than Dubai, and most of the larger companies have offices, workshops and bases in Abu Dhabi. The move has also enabled us to position our manufacturing processes closer to some of our other operational bases, so helping to reduce logistics between all sites.”

Having recently introduced the new Maxima Turning Machine Range into our portfolio of products, we are now very aware of the key benefits of these turning machines to the user. The more we dig into the details and capabilities of this range of machines, the more advantages we uncover.

The major selling point behind the whole range starts and finishes with performance against cost.

We are all aware that in today’s manufacturing sector there are many options when looking for a turning machine/centre or a multi axis lathe. Every Engineer has the same goals and targets when making an addition to his/her machine shop capacity;

• Minimum cost !
• Maximum productivity !
• Quickest return !
• Most efficient performance !
• Long term reliability !

Finding all of these in a machine tool purchase can be compared to a Premier league football club looking for an international superstar on low wages with a 100% fitness and track record - a true rarity. Well, with the Maxima Turning Centres there is distinct parallel to this analogy.

The machines are designed and built with a confident awareness of all these requirements. Starting with the foundation, the bed of the machine is built using a Finite Element Method based on a tubular design. Without a diagram it’s difficult to describe, but this design delivers true rigidity of the highest order. The tubular design absorbs and dampens vibration, providing a very stable structure suitable for cutting all types of materials.

A state of the art Mitsubishi CNC control also features on all of the range of machines. This control is a high performance model, developed to cater for both simultaneous and multi axis machining. Its high speed processing speed and ease of programming fully complements the machines’ exceptional mechanical performance.
As expected, Maxima Turning Centres are built using the latest technology in order to achieve maximum productivity. Both spindles deliver the same machining capability, meaning the Maxima isn’t a sub-spindle machine - the Maxima is a true twin-spindle machine. Operations undertaken on the front spindle can also be duplicated on the opposing spindle with absolutely no compromise in performance. Both the gang slides and the bottom turret can be brought in to machine a part held in either spindle, offering complete flexibility and a balanced operation, resulting in high speed manufacture.

Unbelievably, these turning centres are lower in cost than most other production machines available in today’s market-place. The Maxima machines do actually provide a reliable solution to the engineers’ requirements mentioned above.

Electrochem Solutions, a subsidiary of Greatbatch, has introduced a multi-pallet wireless sensing system particularly for CNC machining operations. The sensing system performs monitoring of the fixture clamping pressure for effective, safe and accurate machining operations.

A pressuresensorone (PS1) for wireless multi-pallet sensing solutions

Linda J. Collette, Electrochem’s Business Development & Marketing Director, stated that during machining operations, the maintenance of a predetermined hydraulic clamping pressure is critical to get rid of the production cycle delays, expensive repairs and equipment damage. Collette added that the company’s wireless sensing solutions can monitor maximum of 127 pallets and also ensures extraordinary automation and control over the CNC machining operations.

The company’s multi-pallet sensing solution includes a base station and wireless sensors. The company’s patented pressuresensorone (PS1) fixed to the holding fixture ensures the wireless monitoring and transmission of measured pressure values to the base station. In addition to the transmission of pressure measurements, the PS1 also transmits the battery voltage and temperature values measured inside the sensor and at the pressure port to the base station. The operators are allowed to perform close monitoring of the system’s health.

The company’s basestationone multi-pallet (BS1-MP) includes a display designed with a touch panel, which performs many functions. The touch panel display will be used to adjust the threshold of the wireless sensor according to the fixture’s requirement, to switch between sleep mode and active mode based on the need and to set the data reporting frequency. The basestationone also performs monitoring of the hydraulic clamping pressure of the machines and alerts the machine’s controller by an alarm signal, when the set pressure exceeds the threshold value.

The rapid technological improvements in the modern existing computing facilities have let the development of a new manufacturing technology which is better in the sense of reliable operation and accurate modelling of the finished products. Computer numerical controlled or CNC machine tools are basis tools or devices which are extensively used in CNC machining services. These industrial products are highly favoured in a lot of industries where some processes should be done fast. The main Characteristics of these gadgets include capability to repeat processes and in some cases, reprogram ability is also very essential. They performance is of nature including drilling, broaching, milling, turning, honing, etching, jig boring, laser machining and abrasive jet machining. The CNC machine tools became very popular in a lot of industries basically because they promise to provide much convenience to manufacturers of the core electrical and mechanical products. Even if some of them perform only secondary operations like finishing, anodizing, polishing, lapping and welding, they are still frequently sought after by companies all over the world. Their link to CNC machining services may be appreciated with the foregoing facts. The CNC machines also performs following additional services One is known as the Computer Aided Design or CAD where some parts of products sold in the market need quick and accurate production and the production assembly can produce the output in quick time and with precise specifications. A variation of this is the Computer Aided Manufacturing or CAM where products are fabricated from CAD results. Taking the help of CNC tools in redesigning, modernizing and improving of existing products from CAD and CAM output is perceived as very possible.

Additionally, just-in time or JIT services are also performed. The JIT is a manufacturing decision architecture which is adopted in certain companies. The machines are capable of providing prototypes that are often utilized in functional testing or in product presentations. In some cases, they also can change the volume of production according to the demand of the current economic scenario.

Let’s see the selection criteria and the characteristics when a company selects CNC machine tools, important parameters to take a closer look into are the capacity of the diameter and the capabilities of the material. Commonly, diameter capacity ranges from 1 inch to 6 inches. When speaking of capabilities of the material, this is the criterion that sets the tool’s ability to provide machining services for various materials such as carbides, ceramics, cast iron, bronze, brass and aluminium. We must be able to look into how the CNC concept proliferated and how it is integrated in computer systems. Be very glad that CNC tools are now offered at low prices so that more industries will be able to benefit from their existence.

As always the technological upraising gives the more efficient performance in the end product the introduction of CNC Machining tools also of no exception in raising the standards of manufacturing around the world with precise and accurate modelling.
