Imagine machining a piece of raw material about the size of a barn door. Kind of mindboggling, isn’t it? Well, if you work in an industry like aerospace, automotive, construction equipment and oil country products, that’s just another day on the job. Machinists who need to churn out huge parts on a regular basis know there’s really only one thing to do: Go big or go home! That’s why Doosan has a full range of massive machine tools specifically designed and constructed to cut the biggest, baddest job down to size (and we mean that literally).

Two things you should know about Doosan. First, the voice of our customers is very important to us, and we listen carefully when they speak. Second, we can’t stop engineering things to make them better. So when our customers told us they love the performance and reliability of FANUC controls, but said they could be easier to use, our ears perked up. Our engineers and software developers put their heads together and came up with something called an Easy Operation Package (EOP for short) to give our customers new functionality.

Beat the Heat with Cryogenic Machining It’s a simple fact that heat is the enemy of metal machining. The friction involved in the process produces extreme temperatures that force you to reduce speeds, get in the way of quality and cause tools to break. Working with our partners at 5ME

Life moves fast. You get busy in a hurry. What we’re saying is, you may not have had time to read every Doosan blog article. We understand. But an underrated part about the holidays is that things can slow down a bit. You have time to reflect and catch up

Officially, Glenn Pedersen’s job title is Director of Inside Sales & Operations. But unofficially? He is the unquestioned Historian of Doosan Machine Tools America. 36 years will do that. Here’s his story. Doosan hires its very first full-time American employee The year was 1981. Charles and Diana got married, Ronald

IMAC Systems Inc. (Tullytown, Pennsylvania) specializes in gas measurement and control systems. Their precision machine shop turns out tight-tolerance components, both for their own products and other local customers. So, when it came to selecting a new high-performance turning center, of course they checked out Doosan. PUMA Finds a Home

Those of us who make a living with machine tools don’t have to pull out our old high school physics book to know that (motion + friction = thermal energy). We live with the practical effects of this equation every day. To start with, heat is generated by the very

A simple fact of machine shop life: If the spindle ain’t turning, you ain’t making money. Whether the cause is simple wear and tear or a collision, your only priority is getting it back in service – fast! As machinists ourselves, we get it. And we’ve got answers. Stop, Collaborate
