Machine tools

Machine tool procurement can be risky without proper technical expertise applied at critical milestones. I work with managers, engineers, and operations people to develop a concept that can fulfill the intent while utilizing practical methods.  Measures include working capital, space, cycle time efficiency, and capability. Throughout the procurement cycle these objectives are communicated to insure success. I develop specifications of machine tool systems, define acceptance tests based on ANSI B5.54, NAS 979, and Six Sigma, select and qualify vendors, develop special processes, negotiate terms of delivery and acceptance utilizing 8-sigma or 1.33-1.50CpK process capability index studies, facilitate machine acceptance trials, and train personnel during application start up. Review an article on machine tool inspection.
