1 very interesting point about precision engineering is how everything must be accurate even to the micron level. This is because precision engineering is the technology of machines, and machines have to be very accurate such that the products made by the machines remained accurate. It can be even said that precision engineering forms the starting point of manufacturing for they provide machines for manufacturers.
This is further proven by a quote: "The basic idea is that machine tools obey cause and effect relationships that are within our ability to understand and control and that there is nothing random or probabilistic about their behavior. Everything happens for a reason and the list of reasons is small enough to manage." - Jim Bryan
With such precision, the machines created by Makino/Precision Engineering are of the highest quality and can give the best yield, which will affect what is being produced. Like a chain reaction, if the machines made by Makino are not well done, the parts created by the machines may be flawed, which may affect another product made out of these parts. In a sense, if Makino machines are not well done, the other machines made by Makino machines may not be good as well.
Another interesting point is how Makino machines are often made by the very basic tools such as the hammer, micrometer and so on. The machines made are not made by another machines.
How am I connected with Makino Machines
Makino machines often are used in the manufacturing to produce more products. It could even be that the computer that I'm using, the 3M products I'm using, the washing machine I'm using, are all molded out using Makino machines. Perhaps these products are processed once again from the raw materials, but Makino machines are the ones that has participated in part of the production lines.
Interesting project Ideas
Some interesting project ideas I have is more on how to maintain the sustainability of making these machines, and reducing the amount of carbon emission
