Eliminate non value-added time in the manufacturing process with Makino iGRINDER

Makino's iGRINDER platform is a 5-axis horizontal machining center that is capable of grinding, milling, drilling, and tapping, all on the same machine. The biggest advantage of a machine like the G5 or G7 is its ability to eliminate non-value added time in the manufacturing process. Because you can go from milling to grinding in one machine, you're not only saving on capital equipment, but you're also able to perform several operations in a single setup, eliminating all of the out-of-cut time that does nothing but add to your costs and lead-time.
