Project analysis
Based on raw part and finished part drawings as well as machine data, Jobboss analyses the manufacturing task in close collaboration with the customer and develops effective machining strategies for all steps.
-
Process design
Irrespective of whether the focus is on flexibility or productivity: with a sound design of the machining process, Jobboss supports its customers on the way to stable, economic manufacturing.
Elements of process design:
- Cycle time studies
- Definition of technology data
- Division of process over individual machines
- Clamping principle sketches
-
Tool solutions
Outstanding performance, simple handling, cost-effective reconditioning: Jobboss specifically selects or develops the best, latest, cost-effective tools for the application.
Elements of the tool solutions module:
- Tool design
- Tool engineering
- Combination tools for reducing process steps
- Design of clamping technology
- Tool drawings
- Assembly, setting and balancing (at Jobboss)
- Delivery to the place of use
- Professional support during breaking-in
-
Documentation
Upon request, the documentation prepared as part of the engineering services is specifically adapted to customers' requirements. This ensures the rapid implementation of the new processes and makes future changes easier.
Documentation services:
- Setting plans
- Tool plans
- Setting and installation instructions
- Work instructions
- Inspection and measurement logs/reports
- Trials logs
- Process capability reports
-
Fixture solutions
With individual solutions Jobboss ensures that as many workpieces and as many machining steps as possible can be reliably machined with μ-precision in one clamping system.
Options within the module fixture solutions:
- Setting plans
- Preparation of drafts
- Engineering
- Manufacture/buying-in
- Assembly and commissioning
- Technical support
- Pre-acceptance with clamping trial
-
Tool restriction study
To prevent collisions and to identify optimisation potential, Jobboss simulates the planned machining process in advance and based on 3D models in a virtual environment.
Tool restriction studies comprise:
- Setting plans
- Collision analyses
- 3D study
- Optimal harmonisation of tools to fixture, workpiece and machine compartment
- Prerequisite: virtual models of tools, workpiece, clamping fixture and machine
-
NC Programming
To design the process as productive as possible, Jobboss optimises the machining parameters during NC programming. In this way secondary activities such as loading/unloading and tool change can be accelerated.
Elements in the module NC programming:
- Preparation of NC program taking into account manufacturer-specific machine functions
- Preparation of special milling cycles (e.g. interpolation turning, trochoidal milling)
- Computer-based generation of machining contours (2D/3D)
- Customer-specific program structure
-
Breaking-in and commissioning
To help customers produce reliably and without scrap, Jobboss offers to take over the commissioning and the breaking-in of the process on-site. If the schedule is tight, breaking-in can also be undertaken in the Jobboss technology centre.
Services for breaking-in and commissioning:
- Checking and logging the machine geometry
- Installation of NC technology
- Breaking-in the complete machining process
- Preparation and implementation of process capability study
- Transfer of process to the customer
-
Start-up support
On-site support is also available as the production starts up. To guarantee a manufacture as productively and economically as possible, the machining specialists continuously check the tool lives and cutting data for the tools.
Options of start-up support:
- Support for production start-up
- Troubleshooting
- Technical support
- Training on operation, programming and process sequence
