When you can process an entire workpiece, from raw material input to final machining, in a single setup, we refer to it as a Multitasking\u00a0Operation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why VICHOR Multitasking?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Our Multitasking machines have the ability to mill, turn, drill and hob part features with high accuracy and high quality, while also significantly reducing setup time by performing most or all of a part\u2019s machining in one cycle. Combining operations also reduces inaccuracies that can occur when moving parts across multiple workstations, as well as eliminates work-in-process inventory that might otherwise linger between standalone machine tools. In fact, the benefits of our Multitasking machines are so great, we use them in our own manufacturing facilities to make other VICHORs.<div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-90","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vichor.com\/machining-centers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/90","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vichor.com\/machining-centers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vichor.com\/machining-centers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vichor.com\/machining-centers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vichor.com\/machining-centers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=90"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.vichor.com\/machining-centers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/90\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":460,"href":"https:\/\/www.vichor.com\/machining-centers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/90\/revisions\/460"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vichor.com\/machining-centers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=90"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
