MEAG AG opens with ACURA 85 EL
Interlinking two ACURA 85 machining centres with an EROWA ERD 500 linear pallet magazine
As a full-service provider for machine and system construction, Meag AG stands for consistently high production quality. The company achieves this by regularly investing in its own machinery.
Last year, the Swiss company invested in two identical HEDELIUS 5-axis machining centres from the ACURA 85 series with an EROWA ERD 500 linear pallet magazine, with the aim of being able to supply customers even more efficiently and quickly in the future.

The latest technology in use
Strong milling performance
The ACURA 85 EL enables Meag AG to machine workpieces measuring up to 600 x 500 x 650 mm. In a twin pack, the two high-performance machining centres guarantee a strong milling performance with a high level of process reliability.
STANDBY Magazine
Both machining centres also have a 260-station HSK63 tool magazine. The large number of tool positions is made possible by the additional equipment with two STANDBY Magazines. This reduces the changeover time to just a few seconds.
Main time-parallel tooling
Two storage/retrieval stations and 74 pallet storage locations allow flexible 5-axis machining for high Chipping output. Heavy and large workpieces can be set up via the loading station for simplified main time-parallel tooling.
Side loading flap
As the high-performance machining centre is loaded from the side, the work area remains accessible from the front for set-up and control work. This means that urgent jobs can be interposed at short notice.
Economic advantage
With the shortest tooling times and continuous machining, the system provides Meag AG with measurable added value. Automation with the EROWA ERD 500 linear pallet magazine maximises the capacity utilisation of the machining centres.
With the help of tooling optimisation and automation, you can increase the annual spindle running time of your machining centre. We offer a wide range of technical options to automate a large part of your work steps.

More news
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?
Experience our ACURA 85 5-axis machining centre in more detail than ever before: At 600 frames per second, you can experience the interplay of power and precision during machining in our latest slow motion video.
Tooling optimisation and automation mean benefits for entrepreneurs and employees alike. Automation not only reduces tooling times and increases production, but also allows you to utilise previously unproductive times efficiently. We are happy to support you on your open road to more productive production.
