PRODUCTION
MACHINING

At ABS we know that nearly every industry relies on CNC machining for heavy fabrications. Machined parts have become increasingly more complex over time, and conventional machining is simply unable to meet these demands. CNC machining is a cost-effective solution that delivers:

Increased Uniformity: CNC machines execute the same program every single time for a given part - delivering precision, consistency, and quality.
Higher Production Efficiency: CNC machining is highly automated, resulting in more rapid production and increased efficiency – savings OEMs time and money.
Flexibility: CNC processes are able to fabricate geometries and sizes that would be impossible with conventional machining methods.

Why OEMs Choose ABS

Not every manufacturer can create quality heavy fabrications. These projects require specific tools, equipment, and processes as well as personnel with the right skills and expertise to handle such large structures. With over 50 years of experience serving a variety of industries, ABS offers OEMs proven experience, facilities, and know-how to safely and successfully perform heavy fabrication projects. In addition to expertise, ABS offers state-of-the-art technologies including 5-axis machining, robotic welding, and the latest software programs.

What is CNC Machining?

CNC machining is a manufacturing process that uses a computer to control machinery. The desired geometry and requirements of the final product are entered into a special software. Then, the software is used to control machinery operating conditions such as speed and location. The computer directs the CNC machine to execute the desired cuts with the machine operating like a robot. Common operations include lathes, routers, grinders, and mills. While most CNC machines operate on the X- and Y- axes at the same time, some advanced machines may have up to five axes that work in parallel, such as ABS’ 5-axis boring mills.

ABS: Strengthening Your Supply Chain

Optimization of the supply chain is a challenge for all OEMs. When it comes to outsourcing the various supply chain steps, OEMs need a trusted partner to help their business grow. ABS offers OEMs a breadth and depth of machining capabilities that most other shops cannot match. With over 50 years of experience, ABS combines state-of-the-art CNC equipment with decades of time on tools and machining know-how. ABS maintains a massive fleet of machinery comprised of dozens of duplicate pieces of equipment. This redundancy allows us to offer unparalleled versatility, nimbly adjusting operations as necessary to accommodate fluctuations in customer needs. We also consistently invest in the future with cutting-edge technologies, like 5-axis CNC machinery and the latest software programs.
