Methods Machine Tools will host a series of Kiwa-Japan “Demo Days” at Methods Technology Centers throughout the United States this spring. Via live machining and technical sessions, the events will focus on how Kiwa machining solutions can impact a shop’s business by increasing productivity and profits in a difficult economy. The sessions begin March 31 at the Method’s facility in Sudbury, Massachusetts and wrap up June 16 at the company’s Golden, Colorado Technical Center.

The agenda includes demonstrations of the Kiwa’s latest HMC and VMC technology as well as presentations about how unattended machining can improve profitability. The machining demos will showcase Kiwa’s expandable tool and pallet technology, which allows shops to upgrade from a 2-pallet horizontal machine with 120 tools to a 6- or 8-pallet machine with 220 tools. Machine models on display include the KH-41 and KH-45 HMCs and the Triple V21i 40-taper VMC, which features a lazy-susan pallet changer for fast work changing in high-production environments.

The complete schedule for the Spring 2009 “Demo Days” road show is available at www.methodsmachine.com.
