Machine manufacturing: smart, scalable and prepared for growth

What makes machine manufacturing successful?

There is a lot involved in machine manufacturing. These components make the process efficient and reliable:

• Efficiency through smart preparation. With lean principles such as SMED (Single Minute Exchange of Dies), preparation becomes a strategic part of the process. Tools, fixtures and measurement data are ready in advance. This makes setup processes fast, structured and error-free – without downtime;
• Repeatable quality with custom tooling. Product-specific fixture jigs are indispensable for consistent production quality. They ensure stable machining, correct positioning and reliable measurements – essential for series production and critical tolerances;
• Measurement strategy as an integral process component. Instead of checking after the fact, measurement becomes part of the process. With CMM measuring machines and product-specific measurement plans, every critical dimension is recorded – randomly, by batch or 100%;
• Reverse engineering and 3D integration. For existing parts without drawings, reverse engineering offers a solution. By scanning, measuring and modeling, components are digitally recorded and made producible. This creates a future-proof basis for reproduction or improvement.
