Zoller
Be ready with the right settings and increase setup times and productivity!
We welcome our long-standing business partner E. ZOLLER GmbH + Co. KG from 74385 Pleidelsheim in our showroom.
ZOLLER offers you the right tool setting technology – completely networked for your smart factory.
Modern CNC machine tools require exact tool data in order to manufacture precisely. This data is determined with a presetting and measuring machine from ZOLLER – outside the machine. The tool data is read electronically and error-free in the machine or the tool management system and setup time is eliminated completely.
You can profit from these advantages:
- One operation with automatic tool edge recognition
- Higher productivity thanks to shorter fitting times and an increase in machine running time
- Better quality thanks to correctly preset tools – even the first part produces top quality
- Longer tool life thanks to regular review of the cutting edge quality in the ZOLLER measuring device
Rotoclear
Rotoclear combines the agile spirit of a start-up with the experience of a traditional company. Even though Rotoclear GmbH was only founded as an independent company in 2019, we can already look back on almost 40 years of product history.
The innovative products from Rotoclear all have one thing in common: they continuously create clear insights into the inside of machine tools. In other words, where the view is obstructed by liquids and particles during machining processes.
How it works. The self-cleaning viewing windows and robust camera systems use a rapidly rotating, shatterproof disk to continuously fling droplets and chips outward through centrifugal force.
The constantly clear view not only enables easy real-time control of your processes. It also allows you to visually identify the causes of potential problems – and even avoid potential errors in advance.
The two main Rotoclear solutions complement each other – and are often used in combination:
1. the Rotoclear S3 is the first self-cleaning viewing window that allows unrestricted views without a disturbing bar.
2. the Rotoclear C2 camera system gives users valuable new perspectives in 4K – even from the view of the tool itself!
