Our May Manufacturing Lunch + Learn - Medical instruments: Improving milling performance through collaboration is approaching fast! On May 21 at 12PM ET, join Rich Murphy, senior applications engineer at Blaser Swisslube, as he discusses how collaboration between his company and FRAISA, GF Machining Solutions, and REGO-FIX increased efficiency and cost savings in a precision medical manufacturing project. Working together to produce an aiming device (also known as a target device) used in orthopedic surgery, the companies were able to reduce machining time by 40% while increasing quality through coordinated efforts in high-performance milling, tool testing, and process standardization.
