Seeing the simplicity of the structure of an E.cut, hearing the noise it makes when it works, touching it while it cuts. For a man in a workshop, for a man accustomed to machining, it only takes a few moments to understand.
Beyond chats, brochures, catalogues, after a few minutes in front of an E.cut opens a new world ……
It comes to mind how much was spent on the keys on those pulleys 160mm high. With E.cut they would have cost practically nothing.
How long to wait for those inserts to thread from the step out of the normal. For those two shafts it was enough to have a nice brazed tool and in an instant profiling it with the right pitch.
That broken pinion on that machine that was stopped 20 days to get the spare part, while in a few hours we could do it.
And to be there consuming inserts and tools for those simple quarries, with that beautiful and expensive machining center, which works alone, but if there ‘s not someone there does not work mica. With E.cut a nice hole to thread the thread, and on Friday afternoon make it go and go… on Monday morning quarries are made.
And those recesses that you remembered that had to be made after having tempered the pieces? It’s true that made with wire erosion they came perfect, but how much to ask please, how much to pray, how much to wait, and… how much to pay! With E.cut we would have made them immediately after hardened. Perfect as with a standard wire erosion, but much, much less expensive.
Of course we had already thought about a wire erosion, but it costs too much for what we do, it costs too much to keep it, between wire, distilled water, resins, maintenance… at least 10 euros/hour of operating cost, and then you also need someone to make it go.
E.cut instead with just over 30,000 euro you have a machine that cuts 300 mm thick, and quarries up to 400mm x 320mm. It costs 40 cents an hour, and anyone in the workshop who knows how to mill or turn it goes there.
And maybe not now, but if I think about how many jobs I let go, how many quotes that then you have not ‘heard anything anymore …
These and similar thoughts, in a burst, in front of an E.cut in work!
After a few weeks, a few months, sometimes even after a few years, here’s the phone call. “I have a job that’s good for E.cut. It covers me a few days a month, but they are more than enough to pay for the car… and then I have it here, free for the rest of the month!”
Several of them have already bought another one after some time.
But first they came to see her,
and not knowing for sure to do what with it.
