i've been a shop owner for many years, and there is always something to learn. I've seen some of the hate on you, but when an applications guy for a company I won't name was doing an impression of you in a derogatory way I had to stop him by saying "No matter what you think of him, he's out there doing it, and you're cashing a paycheck that somebody is giving you. Laugh if you will, but he's (Titan) laughing all the way to the bank." He didn't have much to say after that. It's always easier to stand back and criticize rather than being the man in the arena. Keep up the good work!
As a young 31-year-old CEO of a CNC shop in Germany with 10 people in generell and 20 CNC machines, I understand you completely. Since Covid, it feels like there has been one crisis after another, but we never gave up and continued to invest in our company. In general, many CNC shops in Germany are at an extremely high level, but the high energy prices are really making things difficult for us here, which is slowly putting us at a disadvantage in the global industry, even though we have an extremely high level of know-how and quality worldwide. But I will continue to fight, especially because you are an inspiration to me. Thank you very much for your content
I have great respect for German engineering and manufacturing. Great Quality! Keep moving forward and pushing towards greatness… Things will get better in Germany.
Hello from NZ. Thank you for your inspiring and educational content. I was a farrier for 33 years, and at 50, I decided to change my career and set up a fabrication business. 4 years in I'm now leaning towards more straight manufacturing and looking at developing into CNC work. As you and other industry leaders confirm, the need to encourage and push domestic manufacturing is essential. I love the learning process more than anything else especially getting into it later in life. Never too late to learn. Thank you.
Titan, ive been involved in manufacturing 39 years and its definitely a passion - to keep evolving and improve as technology has advanced. If you keep doing the same thing you will keep getting the same results. Yes some people think youre OTT etc but you have not only built a succesful business, you have also given so much to the world of manufacturing, for free. You have inspired countless machinists to think differently and the next generation to look at manufacturing as a viable and interesting career. Thank you for all of what you and your team do.
First off, thank you for making these videos, it wouldn't be possible in words to express the impact they've had on my life. I was one of the people you mentioned during the video who knew absolutely nothing about CNC or that it even existed. I was really depressed and dropped out of college for computer science after two years of covid as I graduated high school in 2020. I needed a job to occupy my mind so I applied for a general labor position at the metal fabrication plant my Dad worked in (he was a sheet metal laser operator). I basically did anything that needed to be done but eventually helped revamp our tool crib which was my first exposure to CNC Machining. I don't want to ramble on so I'll skip some stuff but now I'm 22 and am almost halfway to getting my journeyman license. I set up on my own, run parts, and program them all thanks to your academy. I really want to be the best I can be, rise to the highest level in every aspect of my life like you were saying. I want to solve problems for customers, but it feels like there are too many things holding me back. I'm too young and haven't built enough experience to be taken seriously by a lot of people at my company. I wish I could do everything at my company to avoid having to deal with incompetent people who refuse to learn but there simply aren't enough hours in the day. I know I'm young and have a whole lot of time to improve things but it almost feels like I'm on a sinking ship since my company either can't or won't replace the incompetent individuals who create the bottlenecks. The company is fairly small and I want to stick it out until I get my license but it really takes a toll on my spirit to see how things are going. If you do end up reading this thank you, my main question is this: What are the most impactful aspects of Machining that I can focus on if I'm the only one willing to put in the effort and genuine care? Apologies if this was a little confusing I struggle to put things concisely a lot of the time.
Franchise Titans of CNC around America, that's how you turn it into a billion dollar business. Man the dream for any machinist is to work for a company with your culture. That's actually the problem with machining. Everyone wants button pressers, and just one programmer. They don't invest in training employees. Some places hire people to run CNC machines and using the word CNC is against the rules because they don't want people to even know what they are running. Can you imagine that? A bunch of people cycling machines and don't even know they are running CNC, they don't want them to know because they might google it, learn to program it, might ask for more money, or worse they'll find another place that might allow them to become a machinist.
Im going through the fire , life is bad my business was ruined by the traitors and im living in a self made prison , i may get sued for not being able to pay off obligations and mistakes .
I learned that the sun will always rise tomorrow and no matter how dark the path gets… you just have to have the courage to keep stepping forward… and eventually, the light will consume you. Pray for His will… and do the right thing always… and think outside the box… and grind until you find success… You will get through it. Praying for you. Titan
@TITANSofCNC my father gave me the same advice, no matter what, you have to keep moving forward. Allow the bad times to get behind you and learn from your mistakes and you'll do alright.
Pick yourself up off the floor, dust off your clothes, stand tall. Now side step so what knocked you down moves on past you. Come back stronger. REBUILD.
I'm only 41 years old but I feel like I'm in a rase against time. I've been watching your for loner than I can remember. Thank you so much for the inspiration!
I'm 33 and have been watching since COVID. Every day after work (Machinist) I come home and watch the new uploads. I knew then I would get a CNC and last year I finally got a small one. My original thought was wanting to move down and try working for you, but I knew I didn't have enough experience at that time. Through your videos I feel the same feeling you describe here and just know I can make a difference around my area. My small machine can still compete around here because I've worked at almost every local shop, and they still use manual machines or at the very most CNC machines without modern techniques and tool paths. Thank you for the videos as they continue to inspire me. You speak and I listen. -Cody
First let me say that I appreciate you... I love what you're doing in the industry. I myself have over 35 years experience in CNC machining and am considered by my peers as a master machinist and master CNC programmer. I have always wanted to give back to the industry in a big way like you are doing... When it comes to teaching the higher level of skills. I have been thinking about this for 20 years or so... ever since 9,11 happened and caused a big disruption in our country and in our industry. What I'm thinking would be a good viable opportunity to make a major impact in our industry. Would be to offer companies that need the work done like the parts you and your staff are making... is to setup a turn key solution where they buy the equipment you and your staff pick as the most relevant for the type of parts they need and to hire a few people to learn all about the machinery and the parts. Get them making high-quality parts exceeding the minimum quality requirements. Then once they have produced all the needed parts for 3 months constantly... Then break the equipment down and ship it and the newly trained staff that was hired for the project. Back to the company having them maintain all the proper faceits of the entire system / process that you and your staff used to make the high quality product and system they need. I would have them pay for everything including materials and tools staff and a fee for your help. To me, this would be a great investment for the company that needs the high quality parts to do. This seems like it would have a very good impact in our industry. Hopefully as a part of this contract they can agree on a fair wage for the newly trained employees so they can retain them... They have to give them a reason to stick around after the fact... just saying. Again, I appreciate you...
I wish someone like you was around back in 1986 when I stopped selling Mori Seiki CNCs and bought the first Mazak V10 in USA, that was my first mistake but not my last mistake, I lasted about 4 years and quit, and your videos would have saved me.
@@jasonruch3529 After ordering the first Mazatech V10 sold in the USA from Machinery Systems Schaumburg il it took them 4 months to deliver, the tool changer got sloppy, and starting dropped tools because the keyway wasn't hardened, and I lost customers. But like I said that was not my last mistake. The V10 ended up being a good machine but DO NOT BUY the first one made.
Been following you through most everything you talked on. I would love to be able to set our high school up with a machining class. We have a steel mill here in town who manufacture joists, steel grating, ect. Would love to see them doing some machining here locally and setting these kids up for success.
Once again. Amazing story telling video. I just hope to see more people who could take care of manufacturing industry. Big thanks to your team and you!
I have been drawing designs for some knives for the past few years. Last year I Bought a 3D printer to make some prototypes and see if they might actually be feasible to make. I started watching your videos last year and have learned a lot. Now I'm thinking about saving up some money to maybe buy a small tormach in the future. I'm 19 and have no machining experience, so to start with it seemed too daunting. but thanks to your encouragement and learning resources I think it might be possible. Thank you for your dedication to inspiring and teaching others.
Titan, I love what you do, and your journey has inspired me to achieve greatness. Your story is amazing and you have come a long way, but we know where you are and where you are going. ("The syy's the limit.") I want to hear about how you started and what motivated you to become the man you are today. I want to know what your biggest challenges were, not just in THIS business, but the hurdles you had to clear, personally, spiritually, and morally? What was the first thing you did, in your head, to drive you to succeed? Thank you for all you do. God bless and i love you bruv.
Great stuff Titan,you really kick ass.I am looking up to you my CNC brother.I am fighting to make my machine shop great. Cnc is in my blood man.I cant wait to get down to Texas and pay you guy a visit.
Thank you for your stories!🤙 By chance: Would your shop and team happen to need a Machinist with several years experience working on a mastercam certification? Super loyal and down to expand with the reinvention!
Everyone gets love and everyone is doing great… But ya, I love the car… of course. My true passion though… is being with my team and touching lives. BOOM!
I’m loving the vibe and inspiration. You alone are making me want to get back into manufacturing. I used to set up an operate three Davenport screw machines. The owner bought them very cheap, and with little investment got them working and producing high volume parts immediately. Out of the three machines we were producing 10 to 15,000 precision components daily in an eight hour shift . It would be nice too have you look into high volume turning components produced by Davenport Acme Gridley index screw machines and show people the latest greatest technology, and that area of manufacturing.. Keep up the great work, Titan!!! BOOM!!!
Hi sir, I am a student studying in India I will do my bachelor degree this year can u please recommend me which course to take whether like mechanical or industrial engineering and management or any other course which is suitable to get into this field I love this field by the way And can u tell me a but about the future proof of this field Please reply sir This is my 5th or 6th message I tried messaging in other platforms like LinkedIn and Facebook but got no reply
Ditto … I will continue watching later … boom 120 % I was very successful in the past … I sell my ability to do the job … I never quit , I never stop educating myself .. peace out bro
do you have any experience with pacemaker / defibrilators in the industry ? (implanted) im going nuts,tryn to get back in my job ,but most company act like im having an armed bomb in my chest
Titan talks are the best! Thank you for sharing your personal experiences with this awesome machining community! Keep sharing your faith man. A good mans steps are ordered by the Lord...
Greatness has already been attained, and we're enjoying it, for free. Existance! Thank God. Enjoy it however it makes you happy, but remember the lessons of the past, domination culture is not the way forward, ask the dinosaurs, therse a universe to explore and no amount of money will get us to the next star, only knowledge will. I think God wants us to explore his creation, rather than sit on this planet and go in circles and trying to rule the world likes its going to last forever. Have fun.
