Problem:

    Drill & tap #2 holes 1/8” NPT @ `A'
    Drill Ø2mm @ `B', `C' & `D'
Previous cycle time, 2.33 minutes each across 3 fixtures and 4 drilling machines
Total per 7 hour effective shift = 180 articles


Component
 Solution:

     HAAS VF0E with an HRT210 rotary table
     #1 dedicated 90 degree angle tombstone
     #1 Brew-Eng ARTB 210 braked `A' frame
Quantity per cycle: 22 articles @ 11 per face.
Cycle time: 15.8 minutes, load/unload time 3.5 minutes.  19.3 minutes/22 articles = 0.87 minutes each.
Total per 7 hour effective shift = 478 articles.

The cycle time for the HAAS machining is on standard tooling, after installation carbide tooling was purchased and is now in use reducing the cycle time dramatically.
