Machine Concept for the Mass Production of High-Precision Workpieces

A machine concept for the mass production of high-precision workpieces, comprising a perspective increase in the quantity of workpieces to be produced within a defined time unit, wherein:

• a) in order to produce a first target value of the quantity of workpieces to be produced within the defined time unit according to the machining steps to be carried out on the workpieces, at least one machining center is provided;
• b) the machining center is equipped with the required machining units which are directed toward a common machining region;
• c) the selection and arrangement of the machining units and technological machining sequence are optimized relative to the workpiece characteristic;
• d) these production conditions are fixed as validated after an audit;
• and
• e) in order to produce a second target value of the quantity of workpieces to be produced within the defined time unit, which second target value is increased in relation to the first target value:
• ea) at least one further machining center is added to the at least one machining center while maintaining the validated production conditions;
• or
• eb) a transfer machine with the machining units is provided while maintaining the validated production conditions.
