Automation is the future of CNC

"Successful automation projects make us better machinists."

Processes must be perfected so issues are not amplified.

– Pete Haley, Owner Gosiger, inc.

Automation Benefits

See for yourself what all the automation
excitement
is about

Tackle more work

With continuous machining, even during ‘non-operational’ hours, ROI is greatly enhanced
Increase Profits

More output, proper resource planning, and decreased labor costs lead to lower cost per part

Shorten Lead Times

Manufacturers can deliver quicker due to the extra hours of fully automated manufacturing
Reduce Scrap

Reducing human interaction provides greater consistency and lowers error rates

Attract Talent

Appeal to and maintain higher skilled workforce with engaging tasks, ergonomics, and safety
Save On Utilities

Overhead costs such as lighting, HVAC, and even floor-space requirements can be reduced

Lights out — 24/7

You may be tired, but your automation is not. By leaning into automation solutions, shops around the globe are realizing the most profitable span of time can be when no one is physically located on the floor, yet the machine tools continue to run.
