The internal technology that we have developed and use at CNC Industries is a significant part of our success. With a team of three people with C.S. degrees in Information Systems and Technology, combined with our extensive knowledge of machining, we have developed a well rounded set of technology-based tools. These tools have not only saved us vast amounts of time, they have also helped ensure that the right things happen at the right time.
In today's global marketplace shops like CNC Industries must not only operate as lean as possible, but must continually make gains in productivity. Our use of technology throughout the company has lead to significant improvements in productivity as well as continuous improvements in quality and delivery performance.
At CNC Industries we have the attitude that no matter how well we are doing something, we can always do better.
Continually seeking better ways to do things is what drives us!

At the heart of any CNC machine shop is the CAD/CAM system. At CNC Industries we have access to many different software applications that are kept up to date with all of the latest development technologies. Advanced 3d and 2d programming capabilities ensure that no matter what the part is, we have the right program for the job.
Advanced features in our software applications allow us to handle the most difficult parts with ease. Simpler parts may be optimized to decrease price and lead time. Either way we are ready to handle any project that comes our way.
In today's fast paced world, communications is extremely important. In 1996 CNC Industries experimented with two-way radios as a way of providing immediate communication between supervisors and management.
What started as an experiment with a few radios has evolved into dozens of radios being used on a continuous basis. A s with all of our equipment, our focus has been on using high-quality, durable radios that can take the wear and tear of a busy environment. While it may seem like a trivial thing, our use of two-way radios has saved countless steps, has increased overall efficiency and over the years has saved a huge amount of time.
Each CNC Machine that we purchase is thoughoughly analyzed to determine how it will fit within our company and processes. Our processes are carefully planned to provide maximum efficiency thoughout the shop.
We make sure that each machine we acquire will complement our existing machines and the parts that we manufacture. Every year we continue to make a substantial investment in brand-new equipment so that we have the absolute latest technology available. This continued investment in the latest equipment along with all the other productivity enhancements that we have insures that CNC Industries can be competitive on a wide variety of work.
Information is increasingly critical to all aspects of business. Using the standard internet format and feel, CNC Industries has created an intranet for the passing of important information between work shifts and management. To the extent possible, CNC Industries' goal is to provide all information in "real-time".
By making maximum use of modern technology, communication issues faced by most machining facilities are eliminated. Information flow is facilitated through a website hosted internally and accessible to key personnel. In the end all businesses, including machine shops, rely on quick, efficient, and reliable communication. At CNC Industries, placing a high priority on technology allows us to use tools normally associated with much larger companies.
