The machine currently being analyzed is a CNC equipped with a rotary tool specifically designed to perform hole machining. Its features include a rigid tapping unit with threads classified under 6H/6g, a high-speed spindle with an operational range of 10,000 to 24,000 rpm, linear guides with a metered feed rate of 40m/min, and 20-30 station tool changers. Moreover, the machine can process aluminum, cast iron or steel components with a positional accuracy of ±0.02mm for M3-M30 holes. This machine is designed for producing cap screws for use in automotive cylinder heads and in electrical enclosures. This design yields 30% less cycle time as compared to standard drilling machines.
