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.

What do the Olympic Games have to do with metalworking? At first glance, not much. Some might immediately think of the customary bite that winning athletes take out of their medals. But it’s worth taking a closer look – because the right equipment can make all the difference when it comes to those crucial hundredths of a second. When German athletes compete for medals at the Olympics, in many cases there is a great amount of development and manufacturing work behind the scenes. At the Institute for Research and Development of Sports Equipment (FES) in Berlin, this also includes CNC technology from HEDELIUS Maschinenfabrik in Meppen.
(PDF | DE) Machining large workpieces flexibly whilst reducing unproductive downtime: The TILTENTA 9-2600 with MARATHON LR810 combines the advantages of a universal travelling-column machine with high-performance heavy-duty automation. During the day, the machine remains freely accessible for the manual machining of large and complex single parts, whilst the automation system enables additional productive spindle hours outside regular shifts. Up to ten pallet locations and a transfer weight of 2,000 kg provide the ideal conditions for this.
Steingross Feinmechanik GmbH & Co. KG specialises in the manufacture of sophisticated CNC-turned and CNC-milled components – from prototypes through to series production. Founded in Berlin in 1990 by Uwe Steingross, the company sees itself as a comprehensive system supplier of CNC machining technology and combines modern milling and turning processes with surface treatment, precision finishing, final assembly and design consultancy. Since 2019, Steingross has been relying heavily on HEDELIUS as a technology partner – including for the automation of its manufacturing processes.
