Find the Root Cause
Separate symptoms from causes and evaluate the factors that are actually limiting the process.
About McMahon CNC Solutions
Manufacturing Support BuiltFrom Real Shop-Floor Experience.
McMahon CNC Solutions was built around a simple idea: manufacturing problems should be approached as complete systems, not isolated symptoms.
The work combines CNC programming, machining, Wire EDM, metrology, troubleshooting, fixtures and process development to help identify the actual constraint and build practical solutions for production.

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.

Working Principles
Technical Decisions ShouldWork in Production.
A technically correct solution still needs to be practical, repeatable, understandable and appropriate for the actual manufacturing environment.
Respect the Complete Process
Machine, program, tooling, workholding, material, inspection and process sequence can all interact.
Keep Solutions Practical
Recommendations should be usable by the people running and supporting the process every day.
Protect Production Reliability
Improvements should not create new problems in quality, repeatability, safety or operator usability.
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.
