Everyone loves presents. Luckily CNC automation is plenty generous as it's full of undisclosed advantages. No matter what the reason is for automating, it’s always interesting to see and hear all the benefits discovered after a proper deployment that may not have been originally anticipated.

Choosing CNC automation means choosing:

  • Revenue Growth
  • Increased Job Satisfaction (CNC Operators and Shop Owners Alike!)
  • Increase of Gross Margin
  • Quick Responses to Fluctuations in Demand
  • Improved Ability for a Single Operator to Tend Multiple Machines
  • Increased Machine Capacity via Increased Spindle Hours
  • Increased Sales Quantities
  • Increased Quality (Refined and Consistent Processes)
  • Lower Stock Levels through Shorter Process Times
  • Less Dependency on Personnel (Improved Work/Life Balance)
  • Etc.

Shop leaders who automate with the right automation make more money, reduce stress, reduce scrap, and can even attract younger generations by simply having a robot (or new technology) on the floor.

In my opinion, shops have improved performance due to direct benefits from the automation, but I think it’s also fair to say that shops that want to automate are generally forward thinking and are always trying to find a way to improve performance. At least that's what we've been seeing with RoboJob in the last 16 years.
