Case Study: GK Machine Company reduces machining time with Mastercam

GK Machine Company - Customer Case Study

GK Machine Company, a manufacturer of agricultural machinery parts, faced the challenge of reducing machining time and streamlining its manufacturing operations across a diverse fleet of manual and multi-axis machines. To address this, the company turned to the vendor Mastercam and its Mastercam Mill-Turn software to create a more efficient, single CAD/CAM software platform.

Implementing Mastercam’s solution, which included Mill-Turn, Dynamic Motion technology, and PrimeTurning integration, led to significant results. GK Machine dramatically reduced production times, with one part's run time dropping from four hours to just one. Mastercam also improved efficiency and productivity, enabled substantial cost savings through extended tool life, and provided a streamlined two-code stream machine environment for their programmers.
