Overcoming Manufacturing Challenges in agricultural machinery

  • Advanced Manufacturing
Imagine the roaring hum of a factory floor, where raw metal is transformed into powerful agricultural machinery. This is the daily grind for manufacturers in the agricultural machinery sector, a world fraught with challenges that can stifle even the most robust operations.

Waterjet, oxycut, plasma or laser, which cutting technology should I use?

  • Digital Transformation
There is significant competition in the market between different cutting technologies, whether they are intended for sheet metal, tubes or profiles. There are those that use methods of mechanical cutting by abrasion, such as waterjet and punch machines, and others that prefer thermal methods, such as oxycut, plasma or laser.

Technological progress of Thermal cutting: from Oxycut to Fiber Laser

  • Advanced Manufacturing
Historically, different material cutting technologies have been developed for different sectors of the market, each with its advantages but also disadvantages and limitations. Usually they have been developed around a single type of cutting, but for some time now combined methodologies are being used, such as water and plasma, punching and laser or punching and shearing.
