Plastic is the most versatile material in manufacturing, and the machining processes used to make plastic products are just as diverse. Ranging from CNC machining, to 3D printing, to injection molding, manufacturers apply a variety of applications to supply plastics...
The glass industry is driven by designers, architects, and decorators. They have a vision for interior and exterior spaces, and manufacturers make that vision a reality. Since big tech companies like Google and Apple pioneered high-end glass designs for their campuses...
It’s a challenging time to consider a big investment. With rising interest rates and the highest interest rates since 2001, fewer people are willing to risk investing in big purchases like a house or car—or a new CNC machine. Today’s interest rates increase the cost...
There was a time when additive manufacturing was cutting-edge, when 3D printing was new terrain, and when hybrid technologies in CNC machines were rare. But today, it’s not enough simply to include additive technologies in your routers. Manufacturers must find ways to...

If you ever drive around town with a kid in the passenger seat, chances are you’ll quickly be reminded how unique each vehicle you pass is. That reminder can come with a punch to the shoulder (“Slug bug blue!”) or a gasp (“Check out that lambo!”). We may take our...
At Diversified Machine Systems (DMS), we know that the quality of our machines depends on the quality of each unique part. That’s why our routers feature stress-relieved steel frames and American-made parts. It’s why we use Hiteco spindles and why we source our raw...
When it comes to CNC machining, precision is of the highest priority. No matter what material you’re working with or what program you’re running, you want a machine you can count on for the highest degree of accuracy and repeatability. And you want all this—without...
Even a great car will begin to wear down over time, and a great CNC router is no different. But just as a good car owner can get more miles out of their car by keeping up with routine maintenance, a good CNC operator can extend their machine’s lifetime if they take...
