Description
XtruMach (XM) is a flow type CNC machining center that profiles, drills and thins extruded parts without part-specific holding fixtures. Tooling avoidance will enable rapid organic manufacturing, improved depot productivity and increased asset availability. FT will work with WR-ALC and OC-ALC personnel to demonstrate the use of XM in the depots to machine airframe structural components. OC-ALC staff have identified that a capability to machine angles where the angle changes along the length of the part will enhance usefulness, which we propose to do as a customization to meet AF needs.
