Why Automation Your Machine Tending?
Machine tending is one of the most widely adopted automation applications. It involves automating the loading and unloading of machines, such as CNC lathes and milling machines.
As the availability of skilled labor declines, more companies are adopting automation to manage these tasks. Automated machine tending ensures continuous operation and increases efficiency.
By automating machine tending, businesses can reduce cycle times and enable around-the-clock production, making it a critical solution in industries like injection molding and CNC machining where uptime and precision are essential.
