My company is looking to upgrade equipment for a high aspect ratio part, OD machining only.
Steel bar is gundrilled, honed, then OD ground - one end finish featured then flipped and completed. We’re a bit labor light and are looking to consolidate some ops into one run.
I’ve looked at DMG NTX machines - very cool - I think too expensive for us.
Maybe smaller millturn, with programmable steady? Also looking at twin/twin and pulling workpiece with second spindle.
Hoping collective wisdom can shed some light on a good solution - appreciate any help
