How Shibaura Machine Builds Quality into Every Machine Tool

  • Machine Tools

ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL, October 25, 2021 - 

Building a machine tool from a geometry standpoint can be equated to building a house. Just like a house needs walls to be square, floors to be flat, and structural components need to be aligned the same principles apply to a machine tool when you substitute in ball screws, machine ways and major machine structures.

Ensuring everything is built to a specification and a certain level of quality also means inspection in both cases. While house builders use inspection tools to ensure their homes are built to a specification and a certain level of quality, Shibaura Machine uses inspection tools such as precision levels, straight edges, autocollimator and laser interferometer to verify alignment and geometry throughout the entire machine build assembly process at our factories and on your factory floor to ensure a quality machine tool for many years to come.

3 Ways Shibaura Machine Achieves High Quality

Shibaura Machine understands at the core of these machine tools customers are looking for a high return on investment. Being able to offer that requires a high quality, reliable machine tool that has undergone a certain level of testing. 

Several components encompass building a high quality machine tool, one that in 15+ years from now and after cutting for countless hours can still perform its job. Our team focuses on inspecting all machine tools before they ever are sent to a customer for these points.
