Presentations by industry experts.

Speaker: Frank Biemans

Multi-batch automation means that your autonomy is no longer dependent on the number of units. Preferably, the autonomy is longer than a weekend (>62 hours) but at least longer than the time between two daily shifts (>16 hours). In multi-batch mode, BMO robots produce several small series one after the other without supervision. For this purpose, several products are set during the day shift, which are then produced unmanned at night and at weekends. The autonomy corresponds with the production time of all set small series together.

Speaker: Ibrahim Sevinc

Precise and stable clamping solutions are essential in heavy-duty machining in order to cope with high cutting forces and minimise vibrations. Centric clamps (EvoGrip), zero point clamping systems (EvoPoint) and elevations (EvoBlock) from EMUGE-FRANKEN have been specially developed for milling under extreme loads and ensure workpieces are held in place safely, even with different milling strategies. Thanks to their modular design, the EvoLine products from EMUGE-FRANKEN enable variable adjustments to different workpiece sizes.

Speaker: Robert Frei

High Speed Cutting (HSC) is still considered exotic or only suitable for special tasks. However, the range of applications is growing continuously. It offers great potential for economical yet high-precision machining of components. However, a CNC machine designed for HSC with customised tools is essential in order to achieve optimum results. In this presentation, you will find out what advantages and possibilities high-speed machining offers users.

Speaker: Hubert Pesendorfer

In many cases, part costs can be significantly reduced during milling. In PROMRO hybrid robot cells with the GRESSEL R-C2 system, centric clamps are used as "grippers". In conjunction with the PROMOT Jobmanager, this enables: 1. maximum spindle running time - 2. production of finished parts through automatic reclamping - 3. minimum employee time - 4. maximum flexibility. Minimal costs per part by combining and utilising the most innovative technologies currently available.

Speaker: Tim Janke

The modern production environment requires a rethink in clamping technology. The presentation will focus on solutions for optimising clamping processes, in particular with the SCHUNK modular clamping device system XXL. Thanks to its unique modularity, it offers flexibility, efficiency and simplicity. The aim is to maximise spindle running times and ensure stable processes on large machines. As a unit, the SCHUNK components offer considerable cost-effectiveness for large machines.

Speaker: Dr Burkhard Heisen

Learn how you can use low-code software such as Heisenware to develop customised solutions for operation and machine data acquisition (BDE/MDE) and OEE analysis quickly and without programming effort. The presentation shows practical use cases and explains how companies can use digital data acquisition and status monitoring to make their production more efficient even without an MES - without having to invest heavily in external software development

Speaker: Stefan Pfeiffer

Cutting edge geometry and strategy to avoid chip problems

Automation is already present in many modern production facilities or is in the concrete planning stage. In addition to the machine and automation, the tool and the machining strategy are crucial to successful implementation. Ingersoll offers special cutting geometries and the know-how to ensure trouble-free machining with short chips and optimised cutting parameters. Challenge us !

Speaker: Jelle De Roovere

Speaker: Reiner Hartmann

Would you like to find out more about how you can optimise your production? Insight into the world of CNC automation. Industrial manufacturing has undergone a revolutionary change in recent years with the introduction of automation systems. Automation solutions make it possible to produce workpieces faster, more efficiently and more reliably and offer companies decisive advantages. In the Generation Automation (www.generation-automation.ch) presentation, we take a look at the world of workpiece automation and explain how it can help companies optimise their production to achieve lower manufacturing costs.

Speaker: Ralf Keiser

SolidCAM is the leading integrated CAM software that runs directly in SOLIDWORKS and Autodesk Inventor and has full toolpath associativity. SolidCAM connects the world of design with the world of manufacturing through associative "one window" integration. All work steps from the idea to the finished product are completely transferred to the manufacturing workflows without any loss of data. Only SolidCAM has the unrivalled, patented iMachining technology and provides powerful support for all machine tools.

Speaker: Georg Seemann

In my presentation you will learn how easy tool and cutting data selection can be. In our CoroPlus software, we enable a very simple selection of tools and technology data. The decisive factors are the machining task, the material to be closed and the characteristics of the machine. The user receives suggestions based on this selection. At the same time, tools are virtually assembled as 3D models including the complete holder, extension or collet chucks and transferred via direct integration into various CAM systems, including the technology data. Furthermore, empirical values can also be saved for the existing tools and used in the same way.

Speaker: Klaus-Dieter Matthes

In the discussion about sustainability, the focus is often on generation, while the saving of electricity in production is often neglected. There is enormous potential for reducing electricity consumption, particularly in the operation of energy-intensive machines. With the "InduEnergy" concept, not only CO₂ emissions, but above all electricity costs can be sustainably reduced - a clear advantage for the profitability and competitiveness of companies.

Speaker: Peter Schmidt

User-friendly measuring and visualisation software for DIGILOG laser measuring systems from BLUM. The application can be used to quickly and easily generate, visualise and evaluate a wide range of measurement tasks in CNC machining centres. The field of application is not limited to tool measurement, but also includes reliable assessment of motor spindle quality.
