Which factors contributed to the improvement ? High Precision and fast positioning No misalignment of Internal and External „set-ups“ Flexible clamping system Multi-axis machining Throughput Optimisation Results
Flexible Clamping System Large Clamping Range Adjustable jaws and locations Pre-set the clamping range Adjust the jaws and locations Inserting and clamping the workpiece at the preparation point possible External Preparation Throughput Optimisation Results
Further positive effects : Higher Quality Shorter order runs Reduction of logistic expenditure Optimisation of the tool use Advantages: Fewer Settings Complete one step machining No temporary storage, less handling and transport Lower change frequency/ shorter paths Causes: Throughput Optimisation Results
