For the past 3 years, Beaumont Machine has been working with the advanced CNC control systems from Siemens to support the real-time connection to our power supply. &nbsp;This has improved our hole shape technology, breakthrough rate and overall hole making process quality.&nbsp; We just completed a project with SpaceX, using this newly developed control system in tandem with integrated large ABB robotics for positioning of the electrode.” said Ed Beaumont, President, Beaumont Machine.</p><p><br/></p><p>The new Beaumont small hole machine at SpaceX has a reach of eight inches in diameter and eight inches in height. Beaumont has built equipment as small as a phone booth and as large as this newest SpaceX collaboration.</p><p><br/></p><p>“All our machines are built for production purposes, right here in Southwest Ohio. Our customers demand the uptime we provide as well as preventative and predictive maintenance programs with NADCAP-approved calibrations. Beaumont equipment, built for the long haul on the strength of our 22-year experience and machines operating in eight countries, are still in production and still holding tight aerospace tolerances.”&nbsp;said Beaumont.</p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p>
