Investment in technology at Melior according to Industry 4.0
In a couple of weeks time we install the result of our latest machine purchase, a Kuhlmeyer ZBS Robotec dual-belt automatic grinding machine. This development, which is in line with the objectives of Industry 4.0, is funded entirely from our own resources and aims to support our small-series production by increasing the complexity of our products.
With the automatic grinding machine, we will produce a homogenous grinding surface of bent and welded housing of stainless steel parts with the minimal use of human resource. Innovation is reflected in the novelty of technology and high automation as well as in its professional support. This investment enables us to increase existing capacities, but above all to produce very high-quality products.
Advantages of the automatic belt grinding machine:
- the use of two separate abrasive belts (for rough and fine grinding) can save up to 50% compared to a simple grinding machines
- the workpiece is clamped only once, no further setting time
- with handling of Robotec, the processing time can be reduced by up to 30% because the process does need human work
- the workpiece can be machined around 5 axes and can be machined on each side with one single fastening
- the machine operator intervenes only to remove and insert the workpiece, otherwise the machine operates independently
- high availability and fast machine setup via simple programming interface (Siemens S7-400)
- education is possible with radio control
- high ergonomics due to free access and the setting of component views
processing
With this machine and technology unique to Hungary, we ensure that our high quality sheet metal parts continue to meet the highest customer requirements.
