There are quite a few trends that are expected to completely transform the precision machining market over the next decade or so. Automation is expected to be something that is basically mandatory as you will need it to adapt to the future of machining. 6 Axis machining is also expected to expand at a high rate as that axis can rotate around the Z axis. Finally, there is expected to be a much larger focus on reducing the amount of product that is wasted.
Key Takeaways:
- Automation is something that is going to become mandatory as it helps companies become much more efficient.
- The adoption of 6 axis machines is expected to expand as 3, 4 and 5 axis machines can’t rotate around a Z axis.
- There is expected to be more focus on reducing the amount of waste that comes from a product by using better materials.
“For the precision machining industry, the pandemic has drastically impacted businesses and operations, and the effects will last.”
