Machining Really Flies with iAdapt!
Aircraft engine parts manufacturer cuts cycle times, extends tool life with adaptive control solution

The problem: A major aircraft engine parts manufacturer was rough milling Inconel® and Waspalloy™ engine cases using a 5-axis horizontal machining center. The process included varying widths and depths of cuts, and the feedrates had to be set conservatively to make sure no tooling or part damage occurred when the cutter encountered the maximum material removal sections. The materials being milled along with varying cutting conditions presented a tough challenge, with poor tool life and a cycle time of over 115 hours. The solution: Install an iAdapt adaptive control system from GE Fanuc Automation.
