New version of STANDBY MAGAZIN.
Up to 264 additional tool slots.
In order to reduce the tooling times of a machining centre, a large tool magazine is required. We at HEDELIUS recognised this trend at a very early stage and opened a space-saving and cost-effective solution on the market with the 180-station STANDBY MAGAZIN. As automation in small series production continues to advance and unmanned running times become longer, the trend is towards even larger tool magazines. This is why HEDELIUS is now opening a version of the STANDBY MAGAZIN with 264 tool pockets. In total, our customers will then have access to up to 329 tools on a TILTENTA 11 swivelling spindle machining centre and up to 344 tools on an ACURA 85 5-axis machining centre, for example!

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?
