Brown & Sharpe Screw Machine Secret: How They Cranked 100 Parts Per Hour—CNC Setup Takes 45 Minutes Per Job
Brown & Sharpe automatic screw machines from the 1950s achieved production rates of up to 100 parts per minute with cycle times as fast as 3/4 seconds per piece. These cam-operated machines required only minutes to change from one production run to another by swapping pre-made cam sets. Once running, they operated continuously for hours without intervention, producing small precision parts like screws, bolts, and fittings. Modern CNC Swiss machines, despite computer control, require extensive programming, tool path verification, and fixture setup that can take 45 minutes or more between jobs, making them inefficient for the simple, high-volume parts that Brown & Sharpe machines dominated.
