If very long tools such as deep hole drills or tools with a large diameter such as disc cutters or spindle tools are required in a HEDELIUS machining centre, the pick-up magazine is the solution.
The pick-up magazine is mounted on the side of the machine table and offers space for up to 5 tools. The maximum tool diameter is 210 mm and the maximum tool length is 480 mm. In order to minimise travel path loss in the machine, the magazine is inserted pneumatically into the work area. The previous manual tool change is no longer necessary. Your employees are relieved and their productivity increases.

In manufacturing companies that mainly produce small batch sizes, every minute of spindle time counts - or so the theory goes. In practice, however, the proportion of productive spindle time compared to working time is often less than 40 per cent. The search for tools, clamping devices and information, as well as set-up, tie up valuable resources and leave many operating companies far behind their potential. There are many ways to sustainably close flexibility - and thus performance - in production. But every manufacturing company is different. The trick is therefore to find your very own recipe for success.
Advancing automation has long since arrived in mechanical engineering and contract manufacturing - but many companies still face challenges, especially when it comes to small batch sizes. While large-scale production is already largely automated today, flexibility in smaller quantities, which are often the order of the day in contract manufacturing, poses a particular challenge. How can automation be made to pay off here too without presenting machine operators with insurmountable hurdles?
