בעבר זמן הכירסום היה מעל 24 שעות לכל 5 הכיסים – עם-iMachining 3D זמן הכירסום הוא כ-10 שעות בלבד ..
original cycle time in Inconel was 1 hour 15 min - after iMachining we got his cycle down to 3 min 15 sec (96% saving!!!)
"You can quickly recover the entire cost of SolidCAM and iMachining in tooling cost savings alone."
..they went from 60 Minutes down to 3 minutes on their first test...at least twice the tool life
... the result was a 500 percent increase in tool life and an 86 percent reduction in cycle time.
