Root-Cause Problem Solving
Manufacturing Problems Rarely Have Just One Cause.We Look at the Complete Process.
A production problem may originate in the machine, program, tooling, workholding, material, measurement method or process sequence — and often more than one factor is involved.
The objective is to identify the actual constraint, separate symptoms from causes and develop a practical, reliable solution.
02
Machine & Process Troubleshooting
Root-cause support across machine behavior, tooling, setup, alignment, alarms and production recovery.
03
Wire EDM Instability
Wire breaks, flushing, threading, grounding, cutting conditions, taper and dimensional-control problems.
04
Dimensional & Metrology Problems
Use inspection and measurement data to isolate variation related to machine, program, tooling, workholding or process.
05
Fixtures & Workholding
Improve rigidity, accessibility, repeatability, grounding and setup efficiency for difficult manufacturing applications.
06
Production Bottlenecks
Reduce unnecessary cycle time, setup requirements and process complexity while protecting quality and repeatability.

CNC Performance & Root-Cause Audit
Find the Actual Constraint.Not Just the Symptom.
Manufacturing problems often involve more than one variable. The audit reviews the complete process to identify where performance, repeatability or production is being lost.

Root-Cause Approach
Identify the actual constraint, test the likely causes methodically, and develop a solution that is technically sound, practical to implement and reliable in production.
How It Works
A structured path from symptom to solution.
Submit
Share the machine, process, symptoms and current production information.
Analyze
Review machine behavior, programming, tooling, setup and available inspection data.
Isolate
Separate symptoms from likely root causes using controlled, methodical analysis.
Recommend
Receive practical corrective actions and improvement opportunities based on the findings.
Manufacturing Approach
Solve the Process.Not Just the Immediate Problem.
Strong manufacturing support requires more than changing a program or replacing a tool. The goal is to understand how the complete process behaves and build solutions that remain stable in production.
Process Development
Machining strategy, setup planning, workholding, tooling, feeds and speeds, and process consolidation.
Root-Cause Troubleshooting
Separate symptoms from causes using machine behavior, measurements, setup conditions and controlled changes.
Fixture Design
Rigidity, accessibility, repeatability, machine clearance, operator use, inspection access and future flexibility.
Metrology-Driven Analysis
Use inspection data to distinguish machine, program, tooling, workholding, material and measurement effects.
Training & Support
Teach both the procedure and the reason behind it so operators can recognize and solve future problems.
Continuous Improvement
Improve output without sacrificing quality, repeatability, tool life, machine reliability or process stability.

Jacob McMahonFounder / CNC Manufacturing Consultant
About the Founder
Built on theShop Floor.
Jacob McMahon brings more than a decade of hands-on manufacturing experience across CNC milling, turning, Wire EDM, CNC grinding, metrology, programming and process development.
His work focuses on solving manufacturing problems across the complete process — machine, program, tooling, workholding, material, inspection and production flow — and turning those findings into practical shop-floor solutions.
The goal is not simply to make a machine run again. It is to understand why the process is underperforming and build a solution that is technically sound, practical to implement and reliable in production.
