We're working on Autodesk parts
There's two different parts
Titan had the idea to run them in double vices
When approaching a setup like this
We have to rely on all our experience
The years and years in this trade
back in 2005 when I started my own company
I didn't have employees
So I really had to think about how to run
these machines
In a constant manner while I could be multi-tasking
and doing multiple things
Right here I'm simulating the very first part
The first off
Three quarter mill is roughing and finishing
The half inch mill is cutting that pocket out in the middle
A lot of times when you run parts you have
one part
You go through all the tool changes
And you run that one part and you open the
door
and you exchange the part you put it back
in
If you have two parts or a hundred parts
It grabs that tool and runs each particular
part
so the more parts that you can run at once
You're saving all that time from going and
grabbing those tools
Two different parts and the first vices are
getting profiled and cut
So the second side is super important it's
got this 3D ball track surface
To get a super smooth nice finish in there
This 3D surface wearer when the assembly goes
together
It's going to be calibrating the whole fixture
So the plan here is to run both parts that
are assembling together
And run them at the same time
So I'm working on the second part
Ball tracking the top of that surface
I can flip it over simulate the second side
16 parts two different jobs coming out at
the same time complete
So we can make sure everything fits form and
function is perfect
What's up Alex
What's up Dana
We've got 500 of these things to run
Got your inspection stuff
Your thread gauges
Start lining them up on the table
We just made a couple fixtures
And it's gonna help us run these parts for
Autodesk non-stop
Where you can run 20 parts 100 parts at a
time
And just flips and it just keeps going
I have to figure out how to run the parts
as efficiently as possible
And make it cheaper than somebody else
So each one slides in
Then we take this Mitee Bite Pitbull clamp
And I pop this guy right in on the inside
The second op what we have here is another
clamp
This guy actually drops down and as the bolt
goes straight down it spreads
Locking one part here one part here
It's gonna rotate and we just keep doing the
same thing over and over
Instead of a part taking 6 minutes
It takes 50 seconds
Therefore I can make good money pay my employees
and just keep the ball rolling
I just finished packing up the aluminum parts
for Autodesk
I'm gonna take them over to the platers
Their gonna get a black type 2 anodize on
them
So Titan can deliver them down to the Bay
Area
So let me introduce you to Shalom
He's busy assembling the parts
I hear you are the man
Well I've got the parts right here so I'm
excited about it
How do they look?
Looks great actually just putting it together
to test that we've got a great fit
Titan: Must have had some great designers
Shalom: I'll say whoever designed and built
this knew what they were doing
So it fits huh
Oh no man this sucks the parts don't fit
I just watched it
It looks like perfection to me
No man it's totally perfect
It's ready to install on Ember's Z axis
We've got to have everything be super precise
here
Because we are 3D printing down to 25 micron
layers
We could go down to 10
So 25 microns like we deal with .001 one thousandths
so 20% that right
Yeah we're well below that
We can go even further down down to 10 microns
that would be a fraction of a thou
Very very fine
Very fine that's the best I can put it yup
So now the calibration bolt and we are off
to the races
3D printing is so amazing to me
I thought there was maybe like one or two
styles
But this is a whole nother style completely
different from anything I've ever seen
So with this we are actually printing with
UV light
And photo sensitive resin
See the light under there
That's actually transforming the liquid resin
on that layer into a solid
And then repeating
So we're really excited about what we're creating
And also about putting it out in the wild
And seeing what other people are gonna do
as well
These parts were just on the machines they're
right there
Shalom: And now there they are working away
printing like mad
And down to 25 micron layers so we've got
super precision here
I'd shake your hand but I've got resin all
over them
We'll do a fist bump
Alright there we go
BOOM
Alright thanks Titan
