Ultra­pre­ci­sion machin­ing of met­als and plas­tics
Lens­es, mir­rors, semi­con­duc­tor tech­nol­o­gy, lasers, pro­to­types …
Com­pa­ny son‑x, 12/2021

For many opti­cal com­po­nents, such as lens­es or mir­rors, the require­ments for the accu­ra­cy of the con­tours and the qual­i­ty of the sur­faces are up to a pow­er of ten more strin­gent than for oth­er micro pro­duc­tion process­es. Frac­tions of a microm­e­ter or sur­face rough­ness val­ues in the sin­gle-dig­it nanome­ter range are required.

Short-term pro­duc­tion of a fin­ished gear­wheel — Flex­i­ble gear­wheel pro­duc­tion with
high-pre­ci­sion 5‑axis machin­ing centres

The man­u­fac­ture of gear­wheels for machine build­ing appli­ca­tions usu­al­ly involves machines espe­cial­ly designed for the pur­pose. Impor­tant tech­niques include gear hob­bing, gear shap­ing, gear-gen­er­at­ing plan­ning, pro­file milling and pro­file broach­ing. Gen­er­al­ly, spe­cial­ized tools whose geom­e­try is pre­cise­ly adapt­ed to the work-piece are required.

Ful­ly auto­mat­ic HSC hard machin­ing
Automa­tion in mould mak­ing: milling machine man­u­fac­tur­er as devel­op­ment part­ner
Com­pa­ny Hel­la, 04/2019

Although com­plex injec­tion mould­ing tools are often one-off pieces, sys­tem­at­ic stan­dard­iza­tion of process­es and automa­tion of the machin­ing steps in con­junc­tion with the use of suit­able machines enables ben­e­fits to be achieved relat­ing to both qual­i­ty and costs.

Milling machines for the high art of mould mak­ing What do pre­ci­sion milling cen­tre­shave to do with mas­cara appli­ca­tors?
Com­pa­ny Zaho­ran­sky Automa­tion & Molds, 08/2017

It is hard to find prod­uct cat­e­gories with aes­thet­ic require­ments that exceed those of the health­care & beau­ty sec­tor. The require­ments that such prod­ucts have to meet encom­pass all rel­e­vant aspects, such as design, colour, sur­face qual­i­ty or look and feel. It goes with­out say­ing that items pro­duced by plas­tic injec­tion mould­ing need moulds that ful­fil com­par­a­tive­ly strin­gent qual­i­ty requirements.

High­ly pre­cise mul­ti-pur­pose machine for the tool shop­Ma­chin­ing cen­ter for heavy-duty ser­vice in milling and jig grind­ing
Com­pa­ny Fein­tool, 12/2015

Fein­tool is a spe­cial­ist for fine stamp­ing and form­ing of pre­ci­sion sheet met­al parts for var­i­ous indus­tri­al appli­ca­tions with a world-wide rep­u­ta­tion. The top per­for­mances its cus­tomers require can only be achieved if the entire process chain from the press through to the tool, the con­sum­ables and the periph­ery is care­ful­ly designed and opti­mized from one source.
